The patch

   ASoC: Intel: Skylake: Use DPIB to update position for Playback stream

has been applied to the asoc tree at

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: Intel: Skylake: Use DPIB to update position for
 Playback stream

DPIB is read currently from a buffer position in memory (indicated by
the registers DPIB[U|L]BASE).Driver reads the position buffer on BDL
completion interrupts to report the DMA position. But the BDL completion
interrupt only indicates the last DMA transfer of the buffer is
completed at the Intel HD Audio subsystem boundary. The periodic DMA
Position-in-Buffer writes may be scheduled at the same time or later
than the MSI and does not guarantee to reflect the position of the last
buffer that was transferred.

Whereas DPIB register in HDA space(vendor specific register indicated by
SDxDPIB) reflects the actual data that is transferred. Hence update the
position based on DPIB for playback.
