The small series following 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've 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
codes them.

The following changes since commit fff18970706913e7fd7f4a119d798dddb44b388a:

  base-files: filesystems: fix mount order (2012-01-06 14:41:19 +0000)

If you're on the mood please also prepare a patch for meta-oe to add
support to systemd. It ought to be quite trivial to add and allow for easy
use for people using systemd based images.

I haven't done *anything* with systemd yet but I'd like to check it out 
so I'll add this to my list.

Expect it to take a few days.

As Koen pointed out, alsactl includes some systemd units to perform this 
function.
