2011-04-12ARM: mxc: Correct data alignment in headsmp.S for CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNELDave Martin
Directives such as .long and .word do not magically cause the assembler location counter to become aligned in gas. As a result, using these directives in code sections can result in misaligned data words when building a Thumb-2 kernel (CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL). This is a Bad Thing, since the ABI permits the compiler to assume that fundamental types of word size or above are word- aligned when accessing them from C. If the data is not really word-aligned, this can cause impaired performance and stray alignment faults in some circumstances. In general, the following rules should be applied when using data word declaration directives inside code sections: * .quad and .double: .align 3 * .long, .word, .single, .float: .align (or .align 2) * .short: No explicit alignment required, since Thumb-2 instructions are always 2 or 4 bytes in size. immediately after an instruction.

2010-01-17ASoC: Add a new imx-ssi sound driverSascha Hauer
The old driver has the number of SSI units in the system hardcoded, does not make use of the device model and works only on i.MX21/27. This driver replaces it. It works in DMA mode on i.MX21/27 and using an FIQ handler on other systems. It also supports AC97 mode of the SSI units.
