Merge tag 'sound-fix-6.4-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tiwai/sound
Pull sound fixes from Takashi Iwai:
"A collection of small fixes for rc1.
The only (LOC-wise) dominant change was ASoC Qualcomm fix, but most of
it was merely a code shuffling.
Another significant change here is for ALSA PCM core; it received a
revert and a series of fixes for PCM auto-silencing where it caused a
regression in the previous PR for rc1.
Others are all small: ASoC Intel fixes, various quirks for ASoC AMD,
HD-audio and USB-audio, the continued legacy emu10k1 code cleanup, and
some documentation updates"
