Subject: Applied "ASoC: dapm: deprecate MICBIAS widget type" to the asoc tree

The patch

   ASoC: dapm: deprecate MICBIAS widget type

has been applied to the asoc tree at

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: dapm: deprecate MICBIAS widget type

Commit 086d7f804e26 ("ASoC: Convert WM8962 MICBIAS to a supply widget",
2011-09-23) says:

	A supply widget is generally clearer than a MICBIAS widget and a
	mic bias is just a type of supply so use a supply widget for the
	MICBIAS. This also avoids confusion with the routing when
	connected to multiple inputs.

but this has never been documented as a policy.  Add some comments to
make it clear.
