[RESEND PATCH 0/2] Improve support for sof_ipc{3|4}_bytes_ext_put

[Daniel Baluta]

From: Daniel Baluta <daniel.baluta@nxp.com>

This patch series provides better handling of cases where sending
a data blob to FW results in a validation error.

In this case we restore to the last good known value instead of keeping
the data that firwmare rejected.

[RESEND PATCH 1/2] ASoC: sof: Improve sof_ipc3_bytes_ext_put function

[Daniel Baluta]

From: Paul Olaru <paul.olaru@nxp.com>

The function is improved in the way that if the firmware returns a
validation error on the newly sent bytes, then the kernel will
automatically restore to the old bytes value for a given kcontrol.

This way, if the firmware rejects a data blob then the kernel will also
reject it, instead of saving it for the next suspend/resume cycle. The
old behaviour is that the kernel would save it anyway and on next
firmware boot it would apply the previously-rejected configuration,
leading to errors during playback.

Additionally, the function also saves previously validated
configurations, so that if the firmware does end up rejecting a new
bytes value the kernel can send an old, previously-valid configuration.
