In preparation for unconditionally passing the
struct tasklet_struct pointer to all tasklet
callbacks, switch to using the new tasklet_setup()
and from_tasklet() to pass the tasklet pointer explicitly.

<title>ALSA: pcm: oss: Remove superfluous WARN_ON() for mulaw sanity check</title>

<content type='text'>
The PCM OSS mulaw plugin has a check of the format of the counter part
whether it's a linear format.  The check is with snd_BUG_ON() that
emits WARN_ON() when the debug config is set, and it confuses
syzkaller as if it were a serious issue.  Let's drop snd_BUG_ON() for
avoiding that.

While we're at it, correct the error code to a more suitable, EINVAL.

Some ioctls via OSS sequencer API may race and lead to UAF when the
port create and delete are performed concurrently, as spotted by a
couple of syzkaller cases.  This patch is an attempt to address it by
serializing the ioctls with the existing register_mutex.

Basically OSS sequencer API is an obsoleted interface and was designed
without much consideration of the concurrency.  There are very few
applications with it, and the concurrent performance isn't asked,
hence this "big hammer" approach should be good enough.

<title>ALSA: Replace the word "slave" in vmaster API</title>

<author>

<id>9ab0cb309e7950a1649bffade985e7ccc7aaf675</id>
<content type='text'>
Follow the recent inclusive terminology guidelines and replace the
word "slave" in vmaster API.  I chose the word "follower" at this time
since it seems fitting for the purpose.

Note that the word "master" is kept in API, since it refers rather to
audio master volume control.

Also, while we're at it, a typo in comments is corrected, too.

Follow the recent inclusive terminology guidelines and replace the
word "slave" in vmaster API.  I chose the word "follower" at this time
since it seems fitting for the purpose.

Note that the word "master" is kept in API, since it refers rather to
audio master volume control.

snd_info_get_line() has a sanity check of NULL buffer -- both buffer
itself being NULL and buffer-&gt;buffer being NULL.  Basically both
checks are valid and necessary, but the problem is that it's with
snd_BUG_ON() macro that triggers WARN_ON().  The latter condition
(NULL buffer-&gt;buffer) can be met arbitrarily by user since the buffer
is allocated at the first write, so it means that user can trigger
WARN_ON() at will.

This patch addresses it by simply moving buffer-&gt;buffer NULL check out
of snd_BUG_ON() so that spurious WARNING is no longer triggered.
