==Detailed changelog between 1.0.13rc2 and 1.0.13rc3 releases==

* alsa-driver
+ Sound Core
- release 1.0.13rc3
- release 1.0.13rc2
+ ALSA Core
- fix compatibility code

fix some typos in the class_device and MSI compatibility code
- add Dell PCI ID

add the PCI vendor ID for Dell for 2.2.x kernels
- fix struct device incompatibility with 2.2.x kernels

In 2.2.x kernels, <linux/netdevice.h> (used by the USB compatibility
header <linux/kcomp.h>) defines its own struct device which conflicts
with our 2.6 wrapper.
- Add wrappers for early 2.6 kernels

Fixed compilation with early 2.6 kernels.
- ifdef check around in_atomic() wrapper
- missing __ATTR() definition
- use macros for pci_enable_msi() to overcome distro-specific additions
- sound core: Use SEEK_{SET,CUR,END} instead of hardcoded values

sound core: Use SEEK_{SET,CUR,END} instead of hardcoded values

- Add definitions of SEEK_SET & co for old kernels

Added the definitions of SEEK_SET & co for older kernels than 2.6.18.
+ Control Midlevel
- Add missing compat ioctls for ALSA control API

Added the missing 32bit-compat ioctl entries for ALSA control API
(espcially for recent additions of TLV stuff).
+ Apple Onboard Audio driver
- aoa: add locking to tas codec

Looks like I completely forgot to do this. This patch adds locking to
the tas codec so two userspace programs can't hit the controls at the
same time. Tested on my powerbook, but I obviously can't find any
problems even without it since it doesn't do SMP.

+ ES1938 driver
- ES1938: remove duplicate field initialization

Remove the duplicate and inconsistent initialization of the kcontrol
access field.
+ GUS Library
- gus: Use SEEK_{SET,CUR,END} instead of hardcoded values

gus: Use SEEK_{SET,CUR,END} instead of hardcoded values

+ Generic drivers
- Move CONFIG_SND_AC97_POWER_SAVE to pci/Kconfig

Moved the entry of CONFIG_SND_AC97_POWER_SAVE from drivers/Kconfig to
more appropriate place, pci/Kconfig.
+ HDA Codec driver
- hda-codec - Add device id for Motorola si3054-compatible codec

Added the device id for Motorola si3054-compatible modem codec
on a Gateway laptop.
- hda-codec - Add vendor ids for Motorola and Conexant

Added string entries for Motorola and Conexant vendor ids.
- hda-codec - Fix mic input with STAC92xx codecs

Fixed mic input with STAC92xx codecs. The mic pin was sometimes set to
OUTPUT by the headphone jack detection.

Also, try to assign a secondary mic as front-mic (or vice versa)
in the auto-detection if possible.
- hda-codec - Fix headphone auto-toggle on sigmatel codec

Fix/optimize the headphone auto-toggle function on sigmatel codecs.
The headphone pins are kept as output. When headhpones are unplugged,
you cannot hear anyway ;)
- hda_intel prefer 24bit instead of 20bit

If I understand the hda_intel code, for format > 20bit it only advertise
the SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S32_LE format and play it at 32 bit, 20 bit or 24 bit.

But if the 20bit and 24bit are available, actually it prefer the 20bit
format. This path is to prefer the 24bit format instead of 20bit.

- hda-codec - Support multiple headphone pins

Some machines have multiple headpohne pins (usually on the lpatop
and on the docking station) while the current hda-codec driver
assumes a single headphone pin. Now it supports multiple hp pins
(at least for detection).

The sigmatel 92xx code supports this new multiple hp pins.
It detects all hp pins for auto-muting, too.
Also, the driver checks speaker pins in addition. In some cases,
all line-out, speaker and hp-pins coexist.
+ HDA Intel driver
- hda-intel - Fix suspend/resume with MSI

Fixed suspend/resume with MSI enablement.
- hda-intel - A slight cleanup of timeout check in azx_get_response()

A slight cleanup of timeout check in azx_get_response() to check
jiffies for HZ-independent timeout.
+ HDA generic driver

+ Intel8x0-modem driver
- intel8x0m - Free irq in suspend

Free the irq handler in suspend and reacquire in resume as well as
intel8x0 audio driver does. Some devices may change the irq line
dynamically during suspend/resume.

Moved the entry of CONFIG_SND_AC97_POWER_SAVE from drivers/Kconfig to
more appropriate place, pci/Kconfig.
+ PPC Keywest driver
- powermac - Fix Oops when conflicting with aoa driver

Fixed Oops when conflictin with aoa driver due to lack of
i2c initialization.
+ USB generic driver
- usb-audio: increase number of packets per URB

To decrease the USB interrupts rate, increase both the default and the
maximum number of packets per URB.
- usb-audio: add mixer control names for the Aureon 5.1 MkII

Add a mixer name map for the TerraTec Aureon 5.1 MkII USB.
* alsa-lib
+ Core
- add support for hosts that have custom symbol prefixes

From: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>

some architectures, like Blackfin, have a prefix added to all symbols (in our
case it's historical baggage)

while normally packages shouldnt care, when code starts mixing assembler with
C (like symbol versioning), you need to dip down into the inner details.
find attached a patch which queries gcc for the prefix (all gcc toolchains
have a builtin define of __USER_LABEL_PREFIX__) and then automatically has
asm() constructs utilize this

since most targets define __USER_LABEL_PREFIX__ to nothing, hopefully this
shouldnt cause any problems :)
+ Control API
- Check control API protocol version for TLV control

Check control API protocol version to avoid unnecessary ioctl
access for TLV stuff on the older drivers.
+ PCM API
- fix parsing of non-decimal integers in configuration files

safe_strtoll() now accepts numbers in any base. It formerly assumed that
its input was a decimal number, which had the consequence that
hexadecimal or octal numbers would be parsed as strings when occurring
outside of parameter lists.

This obsoletes some workarounds in the file permission parsing code that
relied on this bug.

* alsa-utils
+ alsaconf
- Initialize volumes using dB in alsaconf

Initialize volumes by specifying dB values in alsaconf.
This will give more sane values if the mixer elements support dB.
If not supported, simply the old value in percent is used.
