Subject: [PATCH 3.2 121/200] ALSA: usb-audio: work around KEF X300A
 firmware bug

3.2.56-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Clemens Ladisch <clemens@...isch.de>

commit 624aef494f86ed0c58056361c06347ad62b26806 upstream.

When the driver tries to access Function Unit 10, the KEF X300A
speakers' firmware apparently locks up, making even PCM streaming
impossible.  Work around this by ignoring this FU.
