[alsa-devel] alsa-driver cross compile problem - upgrading ALSA

[Max Klein]

What do you mean exactly? Am I missing any option? The other way around
would be to try integrating a newer ALSA driver version into my kernel
source (therefore updating the integrated ALSA driver before building
the kernel and afterwards directly build the Kernel with updated ALSA
version)?
