Thanks for the review :-)

I believe the new framing mode would be useful both for readers of
rawmidi devices, and the seq kernel module.
I have also been thinking of doing something in usb-midi (because I
assume that's the most common way to do midi input these days), to
improve performance for packets with more than three bytes in them.
Right now a sysex would be cut off in chunks of three bytes, each one
with its own timestamp. If so, that would be a later patch.

Sure, I'll send a v3 with a bumped SNDRV_RAWMIDI_VERSION.
I'm also considering adding "time when the stream started" in the
snd_rawmidi_status timestamp to get a fixed starting point for the
timestamps, unless the field was reserved for some other purpose? The
status timestamp would only be added if the framing mode is enabled. If
so, that change would go into the same version bump. Does that sound
good to you?
