note that, in general, the new drivers will be put firstly into
alsa-driver tree.  it will be moved to alsa-kernel later, to be
submitted to the 2.6 kernel tree.

also, please prepare the addition to alsa-driver/INSTALL (additional
modules section), too.

send the patch to here alsa-devel ML, or Jaroslav or me.
we'll review it and commit to cvs then.

when the code is a single file, it can be located directly in pci
directory.  sub-directories are basically for the driver with several
files.

is hdspm.h needed to be public, i.e. a user-space tool needs to refer
that?  if yes, it goes to include directory.

BTW, renaming (especially directory) or moving a file is a bad idea
for the cvs.  bk can handle it better, but still confusing, i think.

documents will be put into alsa-driver/docs directory, which will be
eventually go to alsa-kernel/Documentation.
test applications can be in alsa-drivers/test directory.
