Hi Takashi,

I think it's time to enable this driver by default because:

- Early versions of this mixer driver did not work on all hardware, so
  out of caution the driver was disabled by default and had to be
  explicitly enabled with device_setup=1.

- Since commit 764fa6e686e0 ("ALSA: usb-audio: scarlett2: Fix device
  hang with ehci-pci") (21/May/2021) no more problems of this nature
  have been reported.

- Therefore, patch 1 in this series proposes to enable the driver by
  default, but provide a new device_setup option to disable the driver
  in case that is needed.

Patch 3 adds support for the Clarett 8Pre USB. This is the first
device supported by this driver which is controlled identically to
another, so patch 2 first allows sharing the device_info struct
between models.

Patch 4 adds the specific product series name (like "Scarlett Gen 2")
to various messages so the text is correct without being unwieldy &
generic (like "Scarlett Gen 2/3/Clarett USB/Clarett+").
