<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<id>urn:sha1:69050f8d6d075dc01af7a5f2f550a8067510366f</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

<title>ALSA: control: Relax __free() variable declarations</title>

<id>urn:sha1:7b4721ca3159bce6338dbdf9188b785083571ed4</id>
<content type='text'>
We used to have a variable declaration with __free() initialized with
NULL.  This was to keep the old coding style rule, but recently it's
relaxed and rather recommends to follow the new rule to declare in
place of use for __free() -- which avoids potential deadlocks or UAFs
with nested cleanups.

Although the current code has no bug, per se, let's follow the new
standard and move the declaration to the place of assignment (or
directly assign the allocated result) instead of NULL initializations.

<title>ALSA: control: Avoid WARN() for symlink errors</title>

<id>urn:sha1:b2e538a9827dd04ab5273bf4be8eb2edb84357b0</id>
<content type='text'>
Using WARN() for showing the error of symlink creations don't give
more information than telling that something goes wrong, since the
usual code path is a lregister callback from each control element
creation.  More badly, the use of WARN() rather confuses fuzzer as if
it were serious issues.

This patch downgrades the warning messages to use the normal dev_err()
instead of WARN().  For making it clearer, add the function name to
the prefix, too.

<title>ALSA: control: Optimize locking for look-up</title>

<id>urn:sha1:38ea4c3dc306edf6f4e483e8ad9cb8d33943afde</id>
<content type='text'>
For a fast look-up of a control element via either numid or name
matching (enabled via CONFIG_SND_CTL_FAST_LOOKUP), a locking isn't
needed at all thanks to Xarray.  OTOH, the locking is still needed for
a slow linked-list traversal, and that's rather a rare case.

In this patch, we reduce the use of locking at snd_ctl_find_*() API
functions, and switch from controls_rwsem to controls_rwlock for
avoiding unnecessary lock inversions.  This also resulted in a nice
cleanup, as *_unlocked() version of snd_ctl_find_*() APIs can be
dropped.

snd_ctl_find_id_mixer_unlocked() is still left just as an alias of
snd_ctl_find_id_mixer(), since soc-card.c has a wrapper and there are
several users.  Once after converting there, we can remove it later.

<content type='text'>
This driver is the only one calling ledtrig_audio_set(), therefore
the LED audio trigger isn't usable standalone. So it makes sense
to fully integrate LED audio triger handling here.

The module aliases ensure that the driver is auto-loaded (if built
as module) if a LED device has one of the two audio triggers as
default trigger.

In addition disable building the old audio mute LED trigger.
