[alsa-devel] [PATCH 1/6] ASoC: sigmadsp: Refuse to load firmware files with a non-supported version

[Lars-Peter Clausen]

Make sure to check the version field of the firmware header to make sure to
not accidentally try to parse a firmware file with a different layout.
Trying to do so can result in loading invalid firmware code to the device.
