  ALSA: dummy - Add debug proc file
  ALSA: Add const prefix to proc helper functions
  ALSA: Re-export snd_pcm_format_name() function
  ALSA: dummy - Fake buffer allocations
  ALSA: dummy - Fix the timer calculation in systimer mode
  ALSA: dummy - Add more description

+    pcm_devs       - Number of PCM devices assigned to each card
+                     (default = 1, up to 4)

+                     (default = 8, up to 16)
+    hrtimer        - Use hrtimer (=1, default) or system timer (=0)
+    fake_buffer    - Fake buffer allocations (default = 1)
+
+    When multiple PCM devices are created, snd-dummy gives different
+    behavior to each PCM device:
+      0 = interleaved with mmap support
+      1 = non-interleaved with mmap support
+      2 = interleaved without mmap 
+      3 = non-interleaved without mmap
+
+    As default, snd-dummy drivers doesn't allocate the real buffers
+    but either ignores read/write or mmap a single dummy page to all
+    buffer pages, in order to save the resouces.  If your apps need
+    the read/ written buffer data to be consistent, pass fake_buffer=0
+    option.

     The power-management is supported.
