2c8d089252 ALSA: maestro3: Fix Allegro mute until master volume/mute is touched
ESS Allegro (marked ES1989S), [125d:1988] (rev 10) is mute after
loading snd-maestro3 and running alsactl restore. Touching master
volume or mute makes it work.

Looks like a bug in the AC'97 codec integrated into the chip.

Write AC97_MASTER register twice to work-around the problem.

030270ba1a ALSA: maestro3: Enable docking support for Dell Latitude C810
Enable I2S docking for Dell Latitude C810.
This allows the audio output on C/Port II to work (and probably also
the audio inputs on C/Dock II).

The volume can't be adjusted - none of the mixer controls currently
supported affects the I2S output (they belong to the STAC9721/23 AC'97
codec responsible for the laptop internal connectors & speakers).

cd86f4593d ALSA: maestro3: Simplify PM callbacks
This is a similar cleanup like the commit [3db084fd0af5: ALSA: fm801:
PCI core handles power state for us].

Since pci_set_power_state(), pci_save_state() and pci_restore_state()
are already done in the PCI core side, so we don't need to it doubly.

Also, pci_enable_device(), pci_disable_device() and pci_set_master()
calls in PM callbacks are superfluous nowadays, too, so get rid of
them as well.

20a24225d8 ALSA: PCI: Remove superfluous pci_set_drvdata(pci, NULL) at remove
As drvdata is cleared to NULL at probe failure or at removal by the
driver core, we don't have to call pci_set_drvdata(pci, NULL) any
longer in each driver.

The only remaining pci_set_drvdata(NULL) is in azx_firmware_cb() in
hda_intel.c.  Since this function itself releases the card instance,
we need to clear drvdata here as well, so that it won't be released
doubly in the remove callback.

86b2723725 ALSA: Make snd_printd() and snd_printdd() inline
Because currently snd_printd() and snd_printdd() macros are expanded
to empty when CONFIG_SND_DEBUG=n, a compile warning like below
appears sometimes, and we had to covert it by ugly ifdefs:
  sound/pci/hda/patch_sigmatel.c: In function ‘stac92hd71bxx_fixup_hp’:
  sound/pci/hda/patch_sigmatel.c:2434:24: warning: unused variable ‘spec’ [-Wunused-variable]

For "fixing" these issues better, this patch replaces snd_printd() and
snd_printdd() definitions with empty inline functions instead of
macros.  This should have the same effect but shut up warnings like
above.

But since we had already put ifdefs, changing to inline functions
would trigger compile errors.  So, such ifdefs is removed in this
patch.

In addition, snd_pci_quirk name field is defined only when
CONFIG_SND_DEBUG_VERBOSE is set, and the reference to it in
snd_printdd() argument triggers the build errors, too.  For avoiding
these errors, introduce a new macro snd_pci_quirk_name() that is
defined no matter how the debug option is set.

dba8b46992 ALSA: mpu401: clean up interrupt specification
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.

eb581adf25 ALSA: snd-maestro3: Make hardware volume buttons an input device (rev2)
While working on the sound suspend / resume problems with my laptop
I noticed that the hardware volume handling code in essence just detects
key presses, and then does some hardcoded modification of the master volume
based on which key is pressed.

This made me think that clearly the right thing to do here is just report
these keypresses to userspace and let userspace decide what to with them.

This patch adds a Kconfig option which when enabled reports the volume
buttons as keypresses using an input device. When enabled this option
also gets rid of the ugly direct ac97 writes from the tasklet, the ac97lock
and the need for using a tasklet in general.

As an added bonus the keys now work identical to volume keys on a (usb)
keyboard with multimedia keys, providing visual feedback of the volume
level change, and a better range of the volume control (with a properly
configured desktop environment).

fa6e1cb66e maestro3: treat firmware data as const
The maestro3 driver is byte-swapping its firmware to be host-endian in
advance, when it doesn't seem to be necessary -- we could just use
le16_to_cpu() as we load it.

Doing that means that we need to switch the in-tree firmware to be
little-endian too.

Take the least intrusive way of doing this, which is to switch the
existing snd_m3_convert_from_le() function to convert _to_ little-endian
instead, and use it on the in-tree firmware instead of the loaded
firmware. It's a bit suboptimal but doesn't matter much right now
because we're about to remove the special cases for the in-tree version
anyway.

7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.
