[OE-core] [PATCH 0/4] Add alsa-state from OE Classic v3

[Joshua Lock]

The small series which follows introduces the alsa-state recipe from oe-classic.
The reason for doing so is to remove the requirement for recipes like the
beagleboard-audio recipe in meta-yocto, which ensures the beagleboards sound
device has the volume turned up.

Long term I'd like to implement something more generic for handling device
quirks, but alsa-state is a simple fix for an immediate need that should
standardise how alsa configuration is handled in layers.

Since v1 I added an extra commit which:
a) defaults to /var/lib/alsa/ for state files, as this is the directory
alsactl writes to by default.
b) sed's the path to the state files into the init script, rather than hard
coding them.

Since v2 I've modified the task-base commit to add VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_alsa-state
rather than hard code the alsa-state recipe per suggestion from Martin Jansa
and added an extra commit to move the defintion of VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_apm from
task-base to default-providers.inc

Cheers,

Joshua
