[alsa-devel] longname in sound/core/jack.c

[Takashi Iwai]

Mark,

I'm not sure whether I've already asked it, but I find it ugly to
refer to card->longname for the input device name in
sound/core/jack.c.
Can it be changed to card->shortname, at least?

The long name is often really long like "HDA Intel at 0xf8400000 irq
21", thus the resultant name will be
   "HDA Intel at 0xf8400000 irq 21 Line Out at Ext Left"
as the jack name.
