    ALSA: firewire-tascam: add note for FE-8 · e6e2fe2b
    Takashi Sakamoto authored
    TASCAM FE-8 is the rest of model in TASCAM FireWire series. This device
    has no functionality to process audio signal and MIDI messages. Instead,
    it transfers control messages to host system corresponding to operations
    for some faders, buttons and knobs on its surface.
    
    Unlike the other devices in this series, the control messages are
    transmitted by asynchronous transactions. Some registers of device are
    used for registration of destination address for the transaction. The
    transaction includes quadlet-aligned data up to 32 quadlets.
    
    Userspace applications can receive the transaction and parse it for
    control message via Linux FireWire subsystem, without any support by
    ALSA firewire-tascam driver. Therefore the driver gives no support
    for it.
    
    This commit removes placeholder for FE-8 and add some comment for its
    functionalities as notes.
