Thank you. But

I think this is hasty for for-next branch.

With the applied patches, the Dice driver cannot still handle a device
which I own. Furthermore, I've got some reports from reticent testers
that they use the driver without below codes:

http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound.git/tree/sound/firewire/dice/dice.c#n88

I guess most of  Dice devices support both direction of streams, due to
handling timestamp. In detail, please read my report:

3.4 Duplex streams with timestamp synchronization

Can I request you to remove the patch from linux-next branch? This patch
should be applied after 27th patch, at least:
