[alsa-devel] [PATCH v2 1/3] ucm: Skip component directories when scanning sound card configuration files

From: Mengdong Lin <mengdong.lin at linux.intel.com>

Cards are defined by machines. DSPs embedded in SoC and off-soc codecs
can be taken as components for machines, and can be reused by different
machines/cards. Codec and SoC vendors can define their own UCM config
files. If a codec or DSP is used by a machine, the card configuration file
can include the conf file of the codec and DSP. Later patches will
complete support for this feature.

Two new directories will be used to store the UCM configuration files for
a specific codec or DSP firmware:
- /usr/share/alsa/ucm/dsps ... for DSP embedded in SoC
- /usr/share/alsa/ucm/codecs ... for off-soc codecs

These two directories will be skipped when UCM manager scans the card
directories under /usr/share/alsa/ucm.
