Commit dc31e741db49 ("ASoC: topology: ABI - Add the types for BE
DAI") introduced sound topology files version 5. Initially, this
change made the topology code incompatible with v4 topology files.

No review on these from anyone at Intel?


The only actionable feedback I have seen is that the header file
changes should be in uapi, which is done in patches 2 and 3.

Other than that, there was a question if this is a Linux issue or
a Chromebook issue (it appears that only Chromebooks shipped with
v4 configuration files). I took that as rhetorical since upstream
kernels (at least v4.4 and v4.5) support topology v4 configuration
files, and it should not matter which products shipped using those.
