what's the current status of the git trees? There was some talk about moving the primary revision control system for the kernel bits over to git during the 2.6.26 cycle.
My previous comment was about the patch that affects several subsystem / arch changes. In this case, the change isn't only in the subsystem tree. So, we'd need to cope with others anyway. Keeping such a patch in mm tree separately is one option.
I think that just putting the patches into ALSA is a better bet - it's more in tune with what most of the other subsystems are doing and it avoids possible confusion about what's actually made it into -mm.
