[PATCH] ASoC: docs: Fix stale and misspelled references

[PATCH] ASoC: docs: Fix stale and misspelled references

[Cássio Gabriel]

While reading some docs, I have found some minor
misspelled words and some parts that could be improved.

The ASoC USB documentation refers to the USB DPCM backend link as DCPM
in two places. The ASoC platform documentation still points readers to
the old DPCM.txt name. The ALSA configuration guide also has two
references that omit their current subdirectory.

Fix a few stale and misspelled references in the ALSA and ASoC
documentation and update the references and fix a typo in the ASoC index.

Applied to

   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git for-7.2

Thanks!

[1/1] ASoC: docs: Fix stale and misspelled references
      https://git.kernel.org/broonie/sound/c/b2d1eaa9b660

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
