Hi, Takashi Iwai

Before the API stuff going into the mainline(2.6.33), can we apply this
"[PATCH] MIPS: Fixups of ALSA memory maps"(This is the minimal
necessares) as a current fixup. and then we will not get a broken sound
support for MIPS, and also the support to the latest Loongson2F family
machines will benefit from it.

and Ralf, what about your suggestion?

Thanks & Best wishes,
	Wu Zhangjin
