In former commits, this driver got functionalities to transfer/receive
MIDI messages to/from TASCAM FireWire series.
This commit adds some ALSA MIDI ports to enable userspace applications
to use the functionalities.
I note that this commit doesn't support virtual MIDI ports which console
models support. A physical controls can be assigned to a certain MIDI
ports including physical and virtual. But the way is not clear.

TASCAM FireWire series use asynchronous transaction to transfer MIDI
messages. The transaction is sent to a registered address.
This commit supports the incoming MIDI messages. The messages in the
transaction include some quirks:
* Two quadlets are used for one MIDI message and one timestamp.
* Usually, the first byte of the first quadlet includes MIDI port and MSB
4 bit of MIDI status. For system exclusive message, the first byte
includes MIDI port and 0x04, or 0x07 in the end of the message.
* The rest of the first quadlet includes MIDI bytes up to 3.
* Several set of MIDI messages and timestamp can be transferred in one
block transaction, up to 8 sets.
I note that TASCAM FireWire series ignores ID bytes of system exclusive
message. When receiving system exclusive messages with ID bytes on physical
MIDI bus, the series transfers the messages without ID bytes on IEEE 1394
bus, and vice versa.

This commit adds hwdep interface so as the other IEEE 1394 sound devices
has.
This interface is designed for mixer/control applications. By using this
interface, an application can get information about firewire node, can
lock/unlock kernel streaming and can get notification at starting/stopping
kernel streaming.

This commit adds PCM functionality to transmit/receive PCM samples.
When one of PCM substreams are running or external clock source is
selected, current sampling rate is used. Else, the sampling rate is
changed as an userspace application requests.

This commit adds streaming functionality for both direction. To utilize
the sequence of the number of data blocks in packets, full duplex with
synchronization is applied.
Besides, TASCAM FireWire series allows drivers to decide which PCM data
channels are enabled. For convenience, this driver always enable whole the
data channels.

TASCAM FireWire series uses non-blocking transmission for AMDTP packet
streaming, while the format of data blocks is unique.
The CIP headers includes specific value in FMT field and no SYT
information.
In transmitted packets, the first data channel represents event counter,
and the last data channel has status and control information. The rest
has 24bit PCM samples with right padding.
In received packets, all of data channels include 16, 24, 32bit PCM
samples. There's no other kind of information.
This commit adds support for this protocol. For convenience, the size of
PCM samples in outgoing packet is limited by 16 and 24bit. The status and
control information will be supported in future commits.

This commit adds a new driver for TASCAM FireWire series. In this commit,
this driver just creates/removes card instance according to bus event.
More functionalities will be added in following commits.
TASCAM FireWire series consists of:
* PDI 1394P23 for IEEE 1394 PHY layer
* PDI 1394L40 for IEEE 1394 LINK layer and IEC 61883 interface
* XILINX XC9536XL
* XILINX Spartan-II XC2S100
* ATMEL AT91M42800A
Ilya Zimnovich had investigated TASCAM FireWire series in 2011, and
discover some features of his FW-1804. You can see a part of his research
in FFADO project.
http://subversion.ffado.org/wiki/Tascam
A part of my work are based on Ilya's investigation, while this series
doesn't support the FW-1804, because of a lack of config ROM
information and its protocol detail, especially for PCM channels.
I observed that FW-1884 and FW-1082 don't work properly with 1394 OHCI
controller based on VT6315. The controller can actually communicate packets
to these models, while these models generate no sounds. It may be due to
the PHY/LINK layer issues. Using 1394 OHCI controller produced by the other
vendors such as Texas Instruments may work. Or adding another node on the
bus.
