> + * Uncombinable effects cannot be combined together into just one effect, at
> + * least not in a clear and obvious manner. Therefore these effects have to
> + * be handled individually by ff-memless-next. Handling of these effects is
> + * left entirely to the hardware-specific driver, ff-memless-next merely
> + * passes these effects to the hardware-specific driver at appropriate time.
> + * ff-memless-next provides the UPLOAD command to notify the hardware-specific
> + * driver that the userspace is about to request playback of an uncombinable
> + * effect. The hardware-specific driver shall take all steps needed to make
> + * the device ready to play the effect when it receives the UPLOAD command.
> + * The actual playback shall commence when START_UNCOMB command is received.
> + * Opposite to the UPLOAD command is the ERASE command which tells
> + * the hardware-specific driver that the playback has finished and that
> + * the effect will not be restarted. STOP_UNCOMB command tells
> + * the hardware-specific driver that the playback shall stop but the device
> + * shall still be ready to resume the playback immediately.
> + *
> + * In case it is not possible to make the device ready to play an uncombinable
> + * effect (all hardware effect slots are occupied), the hardware-specific
> + * driver may return an error when it receives an UPLOAD command. If the
> + * hardware-specific driver returns 0, the upload is considered successful.
> + * START_UNCOMB and STOP_UNCOMB commands cannot fail and the device must always
> + * start the playback of the requested effect if the UPLOAD command of the
> + * respective effect has been successful. ff-memless-next will never send
> + * a START/STOP_UNCOMB command for an effect that has not been uploaded
> + * successfully, nor will it send an ERASE command for an effect that is
> + * playing (= has been started with START_UNCOMB command).
