[RFC PATCH v6 00/11] Add audio support in v4l2 framework

[Shengjiu Wang]

Audio signal processing also has the requirement for memory to
memory similar as Video.

This asrc memory to memory (memory ->asrc->memory) case is a non
real time use case.

User fills the input buffer to the asrc module, after conversion, then asrc
sends back the output buffer to user. So it is not a traditional ALSA playback
and capture case.

It is a specific use case,  there is no reference in current kernel.
v4l2 memory to memory is the closed implementation,  v4l2 current
support video, image, radio, tuner, touch devices, so it is not
complicated to add support for this specific audio case.

Because we had implemented the "memory -> asrc ->i2s device-> codec"
use case in ALSA.  Now the "memory->asrc->memory" needs
to reuse the code in asrc driver, so the first 3 patches is for refining
the code to make it can be shared by the "memory->asrc->memory"
driver.

The main change is in the v4l2 side, A /dev/vl4-audioX will be created,
user applications only use the ioctl of v4l2 framework.

Other change is to add memory to memory support for two kinds of i.MX ASRC
module.

changes in v6:
- use m2m_prepare/m2m_unprepare/m2m_start/m2m_stop to replace
  m2m_start_part_one/m2m_stop_part_one, m2m_start_part_two/m2m_stop_part_two.
- change V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_ASRC_RATE to V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_FIXED_POINT
- fix warning by kernel test rebot
- remove some unused format V4L2_AUDIO_FMT_XX
- Get SNDRV_PCM_FORMAT from V4L2_AUDIO_FMT in driver.
- rename audm2m to viaudm2m.

changes in v5:
- remove V4L2_AUDIO_FMT_LPCM
- define audio pixel format like V4L2_AUDIO_FMT_S8...
- remove rate and format in struct v4l2_audio_format.
- Add V4L2_CID_ASRC_SOURCE_RATE and V4L2_CID_ASRC_DEST_RATE controls
- updata document accordingly.

changes in v4:
- update document style
- separate V4L2_AUDIO_FMT_LPCM and V4L2_CAP_AUDIO_M2M in separate commit

changes in v3:
- Modify documents for adding audio m2m support
- Add audio virtual m2m driver
- Defined V4L2_AUDIO_FMT_LPCM format type for audio.
- Defined V4L2_CAP_AUDIO_M2M capability type for audio m2m case.
- with modification in v4l-utils, pass v4l2-compliance test.

changes in v2:
- decouple the implementation in v4l2 and ALSA
- implement the memory to memory driver as a platfrom driver
  and move it to driver/media
- move fsl_asrc_common.h to include/sound folder
