ok, now it's there.  as written above, i put it to alsa-driver tree.
let us move the usb stuff later to the official kernel place.

your codes have been slightly modified:

- usb compatibility hack was moved to wrapper.h, so that it can be
  shared with usbuadio.c

- newly added virmidi registrations.
  that means, snd-usb-midi will have its own rawmidi devices
  automatically as /dev/snd/midiCxDx.
  this will be good for applications which speak only with
  rawmidi.

the latter one was not tested.
can anyone update the cvs if it works?


thanks.

Takashi
