9a02843cae ALSA: dice: Add support for duplex streams with synchronization
This commit adds support for AMDTP in-stream. As a result, Dice driver
supports full duplex streams with synchronization.

AMDTP can transfer timestamps in its packets. By handling the timestamp,
devices can synchronize to the other devices or drivers on the same bus.

When Dice chipset is 'enabled', it starts streams with correct settings.
This 'enable' register is global, thus, when a stream is started to run,
an opposite stream can't start unless turning off 'enable'. Therefore
a pair of streams must be running. This causes a loss of CPU usage when
single stream is needed for neither playbacking or capturing.

This commit assumes that playback-only models also have a functionality
to transmit stream for delivering timestamps.

Currently, sampling clock source is restricted to SYT-Match mode. This is
improved in followed commit. I note that at SYT-Match mode, Dice can select
from 4 streams for synchronization but this driver uses the 1st stream only
for simplicity.

288a8d0cb0 ALSA: dice: Change the way to start stream
Streaming functionality can start streams when rate is given but currently
some codes are in PCM functionality.

This commit changes the way to start stream and add some arrangement
to make it easy to understand the way.

2c2416c83e ALSA: dice: Add new functions for constraints of PCM parameters
This commit adds a new functions and some arrangement for PCM restriction.
This arrangement is due to the number of channels which each Dice device has.

I note that minimum number for period becomes 2, instead of 1 because its PCM
functionality has SNDRV_PCM_INFO_BATCH, this means that the driver uses double
(or more) buffering so the minimum number for period should be 2.

c50fb91f53 ALSA: dice: Split PCM functionality into a file
This commit adds a file and move some codes related to PCM functionality.

Currently PCM playback is supported. PCM capture will be supported in followed
commits.
