Firewire support for audio

[iVolt1]

Please consider adding Firewire support for audio. Old MacPros and MacBooks make great x86_64 Home Assistant machines and Home Assistant is becoming a great platform for hosting multi-room audio. There are a lot of Firewire sound cards and other Firewire hardware around to put to use.

My particular need is support for the Griffin Firewave supported in CONFIG_SND_OXFW=m.
https://www.kernelconfig.io/config_snd_oxfw?q=&kernelversion=6.6.56&arch=x86 has the config details and links to other configs to support other firewire sound cards and devices.

I don't know much about kernel building, but here are some configs that I assume would go into buildroot-external/kernel/v6.6.y/device-support.config.

# IEEE 1394 (FireWire) support
#
CONFIG_FIREWIRE=m
CONFIG_FIREWIRE_OHCI=m
CONFIG_FIREWIRE_SBP2=m
CONFIG_FIREWIRE_NET=m
CONFIG_FIREWIRE_NOSY=m
# end of IEEE 1394 (FireWire) support

CONFIG_SND_FIREWIRE=y
CONFIG_SND_FIREWIRE_LIB=m
CONFIG_SND_DICE=m
CONFIG_SND_OXFW=m
CONFIG_SND_ISIGHT=m

Thanks for your consideration.
