Please refer to the file pcm.h for a detailed documentation of this and
similar names (in fact, the documentation explains the LINE6_BIT_PCM_* names
instead, but I bevlieve the correspondence is obvious). It's hard to define a
shorter name which is at the same time descriptive, consistent, and not to be
confused with related names.

Should such documentation be moved to a separate file (e.g.,
"Documentation/sound/alsa/line6usb.txt")?

Kind regards,
Markus
