The '*_registered' variables are initialized only during the init
phase in the '__init' functions and never changed. So, mark them as
__ro_after_init to reduce the attack surface.

<title>ALSA: wavefront: add suspend and resume support</title>

<id>ed060707d4bac8f1a2fcf83af4e1f01d3337893c</id>
<content type='text'>
The WaveFront driver still lacks support for suspend and resume
in both the ISA and PnP driver tables.

Wire the driver into ALSA PM by storing the WSS codec pointer in the card
private data and adding shared suspend/resume callbacks. Resume cannot
simply rerun snd_wavefront_start(), because with the default fx_raw=1
setting that would reset the synth on every resume and discard uploaded
WaveFront RAM contents.

Cache wavefront.os for PM, probe the ICS2115 after resume and only run
the full reset/bootstrap path when the board comes back raw. When the
firmware is still running, refresh the software slot bookkeeping and
restore the MIDI routing state without forcing a synth reset.

Also quiesce and restart the WaveFront MIDI output timer across suspend
and resume so active rawmidi output does not race the PM transition.

This restores the card to a usable baseline after resume while preserving
uploaded samples and programs when the hardware state survives suspend.
If the board resumes raw, userspace still needs to reload custom synth
contents.

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>
<updated>2026-02-22T01:09:51+00:00</updated>

<id>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>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 *".

<id>0c4a13ba88594fd4a27292853e736c6b4349823d</id>
<content type='text'>
The wavefront_send_sample() function has an integer overflow issue
when validating sample size. The header-&gt;size field is u32 but gets
cast to int for comparison with dev-&gt;freemem

Fix by using unsigned comparison to avoid integer overflow.
