We have been used pcm_new()/pcm_free(), but switched to
pcm_construct()/pcm_destruct() to use extra parameters [1].

pcm_new()/free() had been removed [2], but each drivers are still
using such function naming. Let's name back to pcm_new()/pcm_free()
again.

[1] commit c64bfc906600 ("ASoC: soc-core: add new pcm_construct/pcmdestruct")
[2] commit e9067bb50278 ("ASoC: soc-component: remove snd_pcm_ops from component driver")

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;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.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

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 *".

Current Kconfig menu at [ALSA for SoC audio support] has no rules.
So, some venders are using menu style, some venders are listed each drivers
on top page, etc. It is difficult to find target vender and/or drivers
because it is very random.

Let's standardize ASoC menu

<content type='text'>
After commit 0edb555a65d1 ("platform: Make platform_driver::remove()
return void") .remove() is (again) the right callback to implement for
platform drivers.

Convert all drivers below sound/soc to use .remove(), with the eventual
goal to drop struct platform_driver::remove_new(). As .remove() and
.remove_new() have the same prototypes, conversion is done by just
changing the structure member name in the driver initializer.

Merge series from Takashi Iwai &lt;tiwai@suse.de&gt;:

Hi,

here is a trivial patch series to add the missing module descriptions
to ASoC drivers, as make W=1 starts complaining the lack of
MODULE_DESCRIPTION() since recently.

The whole sound/soc/sof/* are untouched as there are too many files
involved, and I left SOF people to address them.

thanks,

Takashi

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is (mostly) ignored
and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a
quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this
quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns
void.

Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.
