Are these decoder instruction something you need to do at runtime? Or
would it suffice to provide them once when the driver is probed?
For the first case, you could use the ALSA control interface, in
particular the SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_BYTES type.
For the latter, you might want to have a look at the firmware framework
and read Documentation/firmware_class/README.
Hope that helps,
Daniel
