ALSA standard jacks already are implemented using ALSA KControl.
So there is no need implement that itself or to use snd_jack
for input events only.

Similar changlog comment as on the ASoC patch and...

Ok.


snd_jack_new(chip->card, "Headphone",
- SND_JACK_HEADPHONE, &data->hp_jack);
+ SND_JACK_HEADPHONE, 0, &data->hp_jack);
xonar_ds_handle_hp_jack(chip);

...this really ought to be done as part of the commit that adds the
parameter since it breaks the build until this patch is applied.

But that's why is a patch series. But as you say, are you suggesting
me to propose this changes in one patch only?

The basic rule of the patch series is:
- they are split in a logical manner
- each commit must not break the build

The second rule is important especially for bisection and
backporting. You could have done in a different way (e.g. adding a
new function like snd_jack_new_with_index() instead of changing
snd_jack_new() itself). Which way is better, depends on the
implementation details.

In this case I think this will not solve the issue. Because the my propose is to make the control creation standard for jacks.
