   - PCM locking code cleanups for RT kernels
   - Fixes for possible races in ALSA timer resolution accesses
   - TLV offset definitions in uapi

  ASoC:
   - Many fixes for the topology stuff, including fixes for v4 ABI
     compatibility

ASoC: Updates for v4.18

This is a very big update, mainly due to a huge set of new drivers some
of which are individually very large.  We also have a lot of fixes for
the topology stuff, several of the users have stepped up and fixed some
the serious issues there, and continued progress on the transition away
from CODEC specific drivers to generic component drivers.

 - Many fixes for the topology code, including fixes for the half done
   v4 ABI compatibility from Guenter Roeck and other ABI fixes from
   Kirill Marinushkin.
 - Lots of cleanup for Intel platforms based on Realtek CODECs from Hans
   de Goode.
 - More followups on removing legacy CODEC things and transitioning to
   components from Morimoto-san.
 - Conversion of OMAP DMA to the new, more standard SDMA-PCM driver.
 - A series of fixes and updates to the rather elderly Cirrus Logic SoC
   drivers from Alexander Sverdlin.
 - Qualcomm DSP support from Srinivas Kandagatla.
 - New drivers for Analog SSM2305, Atmel I2S controllers, Mediatek
   MT6351, MT6797 and MT7622, Qualcomm DSPs, Realtek RT1305, RT1306 and
   RT5668 and TI TSCS454

<title>ALSA: usb-audio: Allow non-vmalloc buffer for PCM buffers</title>
<updated>2018-05-29T08:01:54+00:00</updated>

<id>f274baa49be67dd8a9f318cd95da6ef9f565d06b</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, USB-audio driver allocates the PCM buffer via vmalloc(), as
this serves merely as an intermediate buffer that is copied to each
URB transfer buffer.  This works well in general on x86, but on some
archs this may result in cache coherency issues when mmap is used.
OTOH, it works also on such arch unless mmap is used.

This patch is a step for mitigating the inconvenience; a new module
option "use_vmalloc" is provided so that user can choose to allocate
the DMA coherent buffer instead of the existing vmalloc buffer.
The drawback is that it'd be the standard dma_alloc_coherent() calls
and the system would require contiguous pages on non-x86 archs.

Note that it's a global option and not dynamically switchable since
the buffer is pre-allocated at the probe time.  In theory, it's
possible to be switchable, but it'd be trickier and racier.

As default use_vmalloc option is set to true, so that the old behavior
is kept.  For allowing the coherent mmap on ARM or MIPS, pass
use_vmalloc=0 option explicitly.

Pull sound updates from Takashi Iwai:
 "There are no big surprising changes in this cycle, yet not too boring,
  either. The biggest change from diffstat POV is the removal of the
  legacy OSS driver codes that have been already disabled for a long
  time. This will bring a few trivial merge conflicts.

  As new features in ASoC side, there are two things: a new AC97 bus
  implementation and AMD Stony platform support. Both include the
  relevant changes shared with other subsystems, e.g. AC97 MFD changes
  and DRM AMD changes.

  Some other highlighted topics are:

   - A bunch of USB-audio drivers got the hardening against the
     malicious device accesses with a new helper code for endpoint
     sanity check

   - Lots of cleanups for ASoC Intel platform code, including support
     for their open source audio firmware

   - Continued ASoC core componentization works

   - Support for scaling MCLK with sample rate in ASoC simple-card

   - Stabler PCM hot-unplug capability, especially for ASoC usages"

Since no complaints have been raised after disabling the build of OSS
(Open Sound System) by the commit 31cbee6a5611 ("sound: Disable the
build of OSS drivers"), let's finally drop the whole code and
documentation.

Some glue codes are still left intact since sound/oss/dmasound stuff
remains -- which is an independent implementation solely for m68k, and
it's not covered by ALSA yet.

Also, a couple of API header files (linux/sound.h and
linux/soundcard.h) are kept remaining as well, since the OSS API
itself is still supported by ALSA OSS emulation, and applications can
refer to these.

Where we're at it, some help texts in the top-level Kconfig are
adjusted, too (who still needs to specify I/O port in kbuild
nowadays?).
