Can we have multiple transfers queued up, which I guess might imply multiple streams?

Can we have multiple transfers > queued up, which I guess might imply multiple streams? Yes for now there is a BTP/BRA single stream active when there are no audio transfers taking place. This is the only way to guarantee predictable download/resume times. There is no mechanism to queue up transfers, be it from the same peripheral device or different ones. It would be up to the peripheral driver to wait for the BTP stream to be available. Adding a queuing mechanism is a bridge too far for now, most platforms only have 1 or 2 devices only, and a peripheral driver may or may not be ok with delayed downloads. For now the main ask is to reduce download times, a single stream is already a good start. There are other refinements we need to add as well, such as changing clocks to use the fastest gear. I'd like to proceed with baby steps...

I'd like to proceed with baby steps... Since the API is async in nature, I think it is very reasonable that we add the queue support (a simple list would do) and notify when the transfer is complete..

Add a convenience pointer to the 'sdw_bus' structure. BPT is a dedicated stream which will typically not be handled by DAIs or dailinks. Since there's only one BPT stream per link, storing the pointer at the link level seems rather natural.
