ES1938 driver
The patch ensures that a es1938 based sound card generates interrupts on
incoming MIDI events. I tested the patch successfully on an ess Solo-1 in
a AlphaPC UX/164.

New descriptions about hotplug fw loader for vx and mixart drivers.

Digigram VX core,MIXART driver,Digigram VX222 driver
Digigram VX Pocket driver
The hogplut fw loader is supported by vxpocket, vxp440, vx2222 and mixart
drivers.  The old ALSA fw loader is still supported for built-in kernels.
To use the hotplug, the new firmware data must be installed beforehand
from the latest alsa-tools package.

The experimental suspend/resume for vxpocket, vxp440 and vx222 are added,
too.

PPC PMAC driver
Buffersize is a bit small compared to the OSS driver (dmasound.h says

At least on Snapper, some samplerates cause choppy sound when
periods<3 or buffersize is not a multiple of periodsize.

USB,USB USX2Y
Implements 'rawusb' pcm data transfer through hwdep interface:
The usb_hc moves pcm data from/into memory via DMA.
That memory is mmaped by jack's usx2y driver.
Jack's usx2y driver is the first/last executable code to read/write pcm data.
Read/write is a combination of power of 2 period shaping and float/int
conversation.

Compared to standard alsa/jack we leave out power of 2 period shaping
inside snd-usb-usx2y which needs memcpy() and additional buffers.
As a side effect possible unwanted pcm-data coruption resulting of
standard alsa's snd-usb-usx2y period shaping scheme falls away.
Result is sane jack operation at buffering schemes down to 128frames,
2 periods.

Also changed Kconfig file, so snd-usb-usx2y is only available for X86,
PPC or ALPHA platforms, as on others DMA-memory isn't mmapable.
