  Allow for checks on a specific USB audio device to see if a requested PCM
format is supported.  This is needed for support when playback is
initiated by the ASoC USB backend path.

The usefulness of ifdef guard here is doubtful, IMO.  This header is
only for USB-audio driver enablement, and not seen as generic
helpers.  So, just add the new function declarations without dummy
definitions.

Got it, will remove it.  We also have a dependency in place for the 
qc_audio_offload driver and SND USB AUDIO in the Kconfig.

Looking at this again after trying some mixed Kconfig settings.  These 
declarations aren't specific for USB-audio.  They are helpers that are 
exposed to soc usb, so that it can do some basic verification with soc 
usb before allowing the enable stream to continue.  Since the ASoC layer 
doesn't have insight on what audio profiles are supported by the usb 
device, this API will ensure that the request profile is supported.

Issues are seen when we disable SND USB audio config and enable the ASoC 
parts.

Thanks

Then rather the question is why snd-soc-usb calls those functions
*unconditionally*.  No matter whether we have dependencies in Kconfig,
calling the function means that the callee shall be drug when the
corresponding code is running.

If it were generic core API stuff such as power-management or ACPI,
it'd make sense to define dummy functions without the enablement, as
many code may have optional calls.  If the API is enabled, it's anyway
in the core.  If not, it's optional.  That'll be fine.

OTOH, the stuff you're calling certainly belongs to snd-usb-audio.
Even if the call is really optional, it means that you'll have a hard
dependency when snd-usb-audio is built, no matter whether you need or
not.

If snd-usb-audio is disabled, what snd-soc-usb would serve at all?
Does it still make sense to keep it enabled? 
That said, the statement above (building snd-soc-usb without
snd-usb-audio) looks already dubious; isn't it better to have a proper
dependency in Kconfig, instead?

Ok, took a look at it a bit more and should have gotten all the 
dependencies addressed through Kconfigs.  Thanks for the review comments 
and feedback.
