    ALSA: usb-audio: Add keep_iface flag · 8a463225
    Takashi Iwai authored
    Introduce a new flag to struct snd_usb_audio for allowing the device
    to skip usb_set_interface() calls at changing or closing the stream.
    As of this patch, the flag is nowhere set, so it's just a place
    holder.  The dynamic switching will be added in the following patch.
    
    A background information for this change:
    
    Dell WD15 dock with Realtek chip gives a very long pause at each time
    the driver changes the altset, which eventually happens at every PCM
    stream open/close and parameter change.  As the long pause happens in
    each usb_set_interface() call, there is nothing we can do as long as
    it's called.  The workaround is to reduce calling it as much as
    possible, and this flag indicates that behavior.
