The vast majority of the current users of the SoundWire framework have almost identical code for converting from hw_params to SoundWire configuration. Whilst complex devices might require more, it is very likely that most new devices will follow the same pattern. Save a little code by factoring this out into a helper function. Signed-off-by: Charles Keepax <ckeepax@opensource.cirrus.com> --- I was a little bit two minds about whether to make this an inline or not, so any thoughts on that would be super welcome. The function does very little, especially given that SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_PLAYBACK == SDW_DATA_DIR_RX so the if is also really just an assignment.
