Hello Mark, Takashi.

This patch series fixes an issue which causes troubles at Sound Open Firmware.
It is already reviewed and agreed by the SOF engineers
Pan, Xiuli <xiuli.pan at linux.intel.com> and Pierre-Louis Bossart <pierre-louis.bossart at linux.intel.com>

Please have a look.

Notice: this patch series includes 1 patch for linux + 1 patch for alsa-lib.

Best Regards,
Kirill
