For gapless playback it is possible that each track can have different codec profile with same decoder, for example we have WMA album, we may have different tracks as WMA v9, WMA v10 and so on
Or if DSP's like QDSP have abililty to switch decoders on single stream
ability
for each track, then this call could be used to set new codec parameters.
Existing code does not allow to change this profile while doing gapless playback.
This patch adds new SNDRV_COMPRESS_SET_CODEC_PARAMS IOCTL to allow userspace to set this new parameters required for new codec profile.

Would it be clearer if this was called set_next_codec_params()? or set_next_track_codec_params()?
Having set_params() and set_codec_params() is a bit confusing since the semantic difference is not captured in the callback name.
