This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\<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.

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 *".

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.

The snd_seq bus got a dedicated probe function. Make use of that. This
fixes a runtime warning about the driver needing to be converted to the
bus probe method.

Note that the remove callback returns void now. The actual return value
was ignored before (see device_remove() in drivers/base/dd.c), so there
is no problem introduced by converting `return -EINVAL` to `return`.

Replace the manual spin lock/unlock pairs with guard() for code
simplification.

Only code refactoring, and no behavior change.

Use the auto-cleanup for the refcount management of seq_oss_synth
object.  The explicit call of snd_use_lock_free() is dropped by the
magic __free(seq_oss_synth) attribute.

Along with that, replace the manual mutex and spin locks with
guard().

Only code refactoring, and no behavior change.

snd_seq_client_ioctl_lock() and *_unlock() are used only from a single
function of the OSS layer, and it's just to wrap the call of
snd_seq_kernel_client_ctl().

Provide another variant of snd_seq_kernel_client_ctl() that takes the
locks internally and drop the ugly snd_seq_client_ioctl_lock() and
*_unlock() implementations, instead.
