usbdux: usbduxsigma: fixed timing issues between ADC and DAC
When sync ADC and the DAC was running at the same time the ADC
showed spikes in the signal. This happened when just before the
DRDY from the ADC was triggered a DAC interrupt was dealt with.
ADC and DAC share the same SPI bus and priority is now given the
ADC. The DAC values are now first stored in a buffer and
are only send to the DAC once the ADC has finished
converting all channels (start = 0) so that the SPI bus is
definitely quiet for about 100us.
for future driver versions I've added a digtial I/O read via
endpoint in1. This is not yet used but might be used in the
future for low latency IO reads if all ports are input ports
and thus the write could be omitted.
usbdux: usbduxsigma: added soft interval mode in the firmware
urb->interval is ignored in xhci drivers. Instead, the firmware
has an interval counter and transmits data at this interval.
The uframes in-between are zero length packets. In order to be
backward compatible with older kernels which support only USB 2.0
and 1.1 there are two ADC modes in the firmware. The old one which
assumes that the interval is established by the host (urb->interval)
and the new one where the interval value is transmitted to the
firmware.
usbdux: usbduxsigma: changed firmware from ADC polling to IRQ processing
In order to prepare the firmware to work with the EHCI driver the
ADC data acquisition is now done by triggering the acquisition with
a start of frame interrupt (SOF) and then the collection of the data
is done via "data ready" interrupts until all data has been received.
Once this has happend then the whole packet is dispatched and at the
next SOF the next packet is dispatched. If there are SOF interrupts
happening during the data acquisiton it is no longer interupted and
only send out the next ISO packet once it has comleted its job.
Also now the USBDUXSIGMA has now plenty of time to deal with other
interrupts between ADC data readouts so that for example the DIO
can now be handled much quicker.

The new FW will allow us to utilize some new features in our driver,
mainly adding vlan stripping offload and vxlan offload support.
In addition, this fixes several issues:
- Packets from a VF with pvid configured which were sent with a
different vlan were transmitted instead of being discarded.
- FCoE traffic might not recover after a failue while there's traffic
to another function.

v01.0B.02.01.
The md5sum of the file is cf8caa8d33e95744f25adcab1373daff
Firmware licenses on linux-firmware should include an implicit
or explicit patent grant to end users for full device operation
otherwise it would start making linux-firmware useless for many
Linux distributions which have positions against patent encumbered
software [0] [1] [2] and it would mean cherry picking firmware files
out. It can also mean making it problematic to redistribute linux-firmware
in some jurisdictions which could have different positions on
patents, or have already outlawed software patents.
Licenses with implicit patent grants are allowed given that otherwise
we couldn't carry permissively licensed firmwares which would be silly,
but using permissively licensed firmware files which remove patent
grants explicitly are not allowed.
A clarifications is needed as one attempt was already made to include
firmware encumbered by patents without a grant [3] and it was decided
we would not allow these. We clarify this to make this requirement
explicit and prevent these type of further attempts.
