[Sound-open-firmware] A branch can be used as to-be-upstreamed?

Hi,

as we got a bug report about the new Dell laptop with SoundWire audio,
I tried to build a kernel with the downstream SOF patches, then I
noticed that it's not so trivial to get the patches from SOF git tree
that are applicable on top of upstream (either sound or Linus) tree.

Do we have a branch that may contain clean commits on top of the
recent upstream?  That is, a branch that is regularly rebased, so that
each commit can be retrieved as a patch.  Such a branch will make
upstream submission easier, and it makes easier for distros to take
the downstream patches, too.


thanks,

Takashi
