[GIT PULL] Additional firmware files for CA0132 HD-audio codec

[Connor McAdams]

The following changes since commit c6b6265d718d118e28e1ce8f91769aa886b54c94:

  Merge tag 'iwlwifi-fw-2018-10-03' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/linux-firmware (2018-10-08 09:23:53 -0400)

are available in the git repository at:

  git@github.com:Conmanx360/linux-firmware.git 

for you to fetch changes up to cd8899323352e772c5989230f35b1c494e0ab196:

  linux-firmware: Add new firmware for Creative CA0132 HD-Audio Codec (2018-10-09 14:41:12 -0400)

----------------------------------------------------------------
These are additional firmware files for CA0132 based sound cards.

Creative has given me permission through email to send these to the 
linux-firmware repository under the same license as the previous ca0132 
firmware. I asked my contact if they would sign-off on it, but they said 
to go ahead and submit it and that if there was any issue to contact 
them. 

If you need to contact them, or if there's more info needed, let me know
and I can get see what I can do.

Please can anyone take a look at this pull request?

It's mandatory for the CA0132-based cards that are now supported
better in the upstream kernel tree.


Thanks!

I'd really like to see a Sign-off from someone at Creative.  It's not
that I don't trust your word that they agreed to it, but we have
nothing to go back and verify they actually agreed to allow this to be
redistributable, etc.

Re: [GIT PULL] Additional firmware files for CA0132 HD-audio codec

[Connor McAdams]

Understood. I will see what I can do. I already had them contact
Takashi, but I will ask if they're willing to give a sign-off. If
they're having trouble, is it okay to have them contact you Josh?

Let me know.

Okay, just got a response from the guy at Creative. He said they'll
try to sort it out this week. Just a heads up. :)

Re: [GIT PULL] Additional firmware files for CA0132 HD-audio codec

[Connor McAdams]

Okay... So, my contact at Creative gave me an email as the 'sign-off
party' for firmware submission. As far as I'm aware, sign-offs also
need names attached, correct? So I'll ask for that. However, they
still want me to send it.

Will that be okay? Would you be more comfortable if I get you in
contact with someone at Creative,Josh?

I apologize for being kind of difficult, I'm doing what I can. Let me
know what I need to do, and I'll do my best.

Thanks,
Connor.

It is common for someone to sign-off on a patch, but have someone else
send it.  Having their Signed-off-by: <person> in the commit log is
OK.
