Since we're calling request_module() asynchronously now, we can get
rid of the autoload lock in snd_seq_device_register_driver(), as well
as in the snd-seq driver registration itself.  This enables the
automatic loading of dependent sequencer modules, such as
snd-seq-virmidi from snd-emu10k1-synth.

Currently the sequencer module binding is performed independently from
the card module itself.  The reason behind it is to keep the sequencer
stuff optional and allow the system running without it (e.g. for using
PCM or rawmidi only).  This works in most cases, but a remaining
problem is that the binding isn't done automatically when a new driver
module is probed.  Typically this becomes visible when a hotplug
driver like usb audio is used.

This patch tries to address this and other potential issues.  First,
the seq-binder (seq_device.c) tries to load a missing driver module at
creating a new device object.  This is done asynchronously in a workq
for avoiding the deadlock (modprobe call in module init path).

This action, however, should be enabled only when the sequencer stuff
was already initialized, i.e. snd-seq module was already loaded.  For
that, a new function, snd_seq_autoload_init() is introduced here; this
clears the blocking of autoloading, and also tries to load all pending
driver modules.

For files that are actively using linux/device.h, make sure
that they call it out.  This will allow us to clean up some
of the implicit uses of linux/device.h within include/*
without introducing build regressions.

Yes, this was created by "cheating" -- i.e. the headers were
cleaned up, and then the fallout was found and fixed, and then
the two commits were reordered.  This ensures we don't introduce
build regressions into the git history.

The implicit presence of module.h lured several users into
incorrectly thinking that they only needed/used modparam.h
but once we clean up the module.h presence, these will show
up as build failures, so fix 'em now.

If CONFIG_SND_DYNAMIC_MINORS is used, assign /dev/snd/seq and
/dev/snd/timer the usual static minors, and export specific
module aliases to generate udev module on-demand loading
instructions:

  $ cat /lib/modules/2.6.33.4-smp/modules.devname
  # Device nodes to trigger on-demand module loading.
  microcode cpu/microcode c10:184
  fuse fuse c10:229
  ppp_generic ppp c108:0
  tun net/tun c10:200
  uinput uinput c10:223
  dm_mod mapper/control c10:236
  snd_timer snd/timer c116:33
  snd_seq snd/seq c116:1

The last two lines instruct udev to create device nodes, even
when the modules are not loaded at that time.

As soon as userspace accesses any of these nodes, the in-kernel
module-loader will load the module, and the device can be used.

The header file minor calculation needed to be simplified to
make __stringify() (supports only two indirections) in
the MODULE_ALIAS macro work.

This is part of systemd's effort to get rid of unconditional
module load instructions and needless init scripts.

Added the hrtimer backend for ALSA timer interface.
It can be used for the sequencer timer source.

This header file exists only for some hacks to adapt alsa-driver
tree.  It's useless for building in the kernel.  Let's move a few
lines in it to sound/core.h and remove it.
With this patch, sound/driver.h isn't removed but has just a single
compile warning to include it.  This should be really killed in
future.

Modules: ALSA sequencer

Reduce the maximum possible number of global clients to 16 to make
more numbers available for card clients, and allow dynamically allocated
card client numbers to share the same range as application client
numbers to make sure that all 32 cards can be used at the same time.
