This patch ensures the reset only happens when it needs to, which is when the format changes, and makes the code a little more readable.

This patch turns off codec->spdif_status_reset after one reset which stops further clicks. One reset is still necessary to initialise the codec properly.
The flag isn't supposed to be changed in such a dynamic way. Certain codecs seem requiring resetting the SPDIF status bits, and this flag indicates that.
That is, blindly clearing this flag is risky (and likely broken).
One better option would be to do the SPDIF status reset only when the value is really changed.
Hi Takashi,
Thanks, you are right, if another audio player used a different format, only noise was produced... So v2 of the patch does the reset if the format changes, (so changing players still results in a click, but that seems to be unavoidable) and has some other changes which I think make the code a bit more readable. Could you please review this?
Thanks, this looks much better now. Just a nitpicking:
It's against the 3.6.4 stable branch (which is what I'm running), or does it need to be against Linus's tree?
Thanks, Laurence

Better to put parentheses around the bit operations when combined with logical operations. gcc would suggest it, too, I thought.
