Usage of /etc/modprobe.conf file was deprecated by module-init-tools and
is no longer parsed by new kmod tool. References to this file are
replaced in Documentation, comments and Kconfig according to the
context.

There are also some references to the old /etc/modules.conf from 2.4
kernels that are being removed.

module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int.  In
fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy
trick.

It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option.  For this version
it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version.

This patch converts the drivers in sound/* to use the
module_platform_driver() macro which makes the code smaller and a bit
simpler.

These aren't modules, but they do make use of these macros, so
they will need export.h to get that definition.  Previously,
they got it via the implicit module.h inclusion.

Lots of sound drivers were getting module.h via the implicit presence
of it in &lt;linux/device.h&gt; but we are going to clean that up.  So
fix up those users now.

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.

snd-aloop driver is virtual and has no need for allocating contiguous
pages.  It'll be more system-friendly to use vmalloc buffers.

Since commit [e58aa3d2: genirq: Run irq handlers with interrupts disabled],
We run all interrupt handlers with interrupts disabled
and we even check and yell when an interrupt handler
returns with interrupts enabled (see commit [b738a50a:
genirq: Warn when handler enables interrupts]).

So now this flag is a NOOP and can be removed.

<title>ALSA: mpu401: clean up interrupt specification</title>

The semantics of snd_mpu401_uart_new()'s interrupt parameters are
somewhat counterintuitive:  To prevent the function from allocating its
own interrupt, either the irq number must be invalid, or the irq_flags
parameter must be zero.  At the same time, the irq parameter being
invalid specifies that the mpu401 code has to work without an interrupt
allocated by the caller.  This implies that, if there is an interrupt
and it is allocated by the caller, the irq parameter must be set to
a valid-looking number which then isn't actually used.

With the removal of IRQF_DISABLED, zero becomes a valid irq_flags value,
which forces us to handle the parameters differently.

This patch introduces a new flag MPU401_INFO_IRQ_HOOK for when the
device interrupt is handled by the caller, and makes the allocation of
the interrupt to depend only on the irq parameter.  As suggested by
Takashi, the irq_flags parameter was dropped because, when used, it had
the constant value IRQF_DISABLED.
