The two patches have now been upstreamed. Apart from those changes, the
only thing that changed was the hwmixvolume tool, which got ported from
PyGTK to PyGObject, and from GTK 2 to GTK 3.
When testing hwmixvolume, I found that it depends on pyalsa, which has
not been packaged for OE. I believe hwmixvolume has never worked on OE.
It certainly didn't work before this patch, trying to build it failed
due to python-pygtk not being available. Even if python-pygtk was
available at some point in the past, hwmixvolume has always used pyalsa,
but the alsa-tools recipe has never had that dependency declared.
