This patch series adds support for the Sound BlasterX AE-5. I have
personally tested it, and had others test it as well. All outputs work,
front headphone, rear headphone, rear line-out, surround, digital. The
only issue currently is that the microphone suffers from inconsistency
like the Sound Blaster Z does, and Creative may be willing to help fix
that, but if they're not, I have a few ideas.

I also have the ZxR working currently. That will require some more
complicated changes of the driver, so I have left it out and just
focused on the AE-5.

Thanks, applied now all 15 patches.

One patch caused a compile warning in the middle of series due to an
unused variable which is used in a later patch.  Since it's a trivial
issue, I addressed it by myself locally.  But at the next time, it'd
be helpful if you do a compile test for each commit in the series
before submission.

Thank you for fixing that. I was doing that previously, but this time
I was only doing it every few commits. Will make sure to go back to
the way I was doing it before. Sorry about that.
