[alsa-devel] [RESEND PATCH 1/1] Allow any MIDI endpoint to drive use of interrupt transfer on newer Roland devices

[maillist at superlative.org]

From: "Keith A. Milner" <maillist at superlative.org>

This patch enables interrupt transfer mode for MIDI ports on newer
Boss/Roland devices such as the GT-100/001 which support interrupt
transfer on both IN and OUT MIDI endpoints. Previously this wasn't being
enabled for these devices as the code was specifically looking for the
scenario where the IN endpoint supported interrupt transfer and the OUT
endpoint was bulk transfer. Newer devices support interrupt transfer for
both endpoints.

This has been tested on Boss devices GT-001, BR-80 and JS-8 and Roland
VS-20.

It would benefit from some regresison testing with other devices if
possible.
