ASoC: Drop snd_soc_*_get_kcontrol_locked()

The recent cleanup in ALSA control core made no difference between
snd_ctl_find_id_mixer() and snd_ctl_find_id_mixer_locked(), and the
latter is to be dropped. The only user of the left API was ASoC, and
that's snd_soc_card_get_kcontrol_locked() and
snd_soc_component_get_kcontrol_locked().

This patch drops those functions and rewrites those users to call the
variant without locked instead. The test of the API became
superfluous, hence dropped as well.

As all callers of snd_ctl_find_id_mixer_locked() are gone,
snd_ctl_find_id_mixer_locked() is finally dropped, too.

ALSA: control: Optimize locking for look-up

For a fast look-up of a control element via either numid or name
matching (enabled via CONFIG_SND_CTL_FAST_LOOKUP), a locking isn't
needed at all thanks to Xarray. OTOH, the locking is still needed for
a slow linked-list traversal, and that's rather a rare case.

In this patch, we reduce the use of locking at snd_ctl_find_*() API
functions, and switch from controls_rwsem to controls_rwlock for
avoiding unnecessary lock inversions. This also resulted in a nice
cleanup, as *_unlocked() version of snd_ctl_find_*() APIs can be
dropped.

snd_ctl_find_id_mixer_unlocked() is still left just as an alias of
snd_ctl_find_id_mixer(), since soc-card.c has a wrapper and there are
several users. Once after converting there, we can remove it later.

ALSA: control: Annotate snd_kcontrol with __counted_by()

struct snd_kcontrol contains a flex array of snd_kcontrol_volatile

This can be annotated gracefully with __counted_by() for catching
possible array overflows.

One additional change is the order of the count field initialization;
The assignment of the count field is moved before assignment of vd[]

ALSA: control: Introduce unlocked version for snd_ctl_find_*() helpers

For reducing the unnecessary use of controls_rwsem in the drivers,
this patch adds a new variant for snd_ctl_find_*() helpers:
snd_ctl_find_id_locked() and snd_ctl_find_numid_locked() look for a
kctl element inside the card->controls_rwsem -- that is, doing the
very same as what snd_ctl_find_id() and snd_ctl_find_numid() did until
now. snd_ctl_find_id() and snd_ctl_find_numid() remain same,
i.e. still unlocked version, but they will be switched to locked
version once after all callers are replaced.

The patch also replaces the calls of snd_ctl_find_id() and
snd_ctl_find_numid() in a few places; all of those are places where we
know that the functions are called properly with controls_rwsem held.
All others are without rwsem (although they should have been).

After this patch, we'll turn on the locking in snd_ctl_find_id() and
snd_ctl_find_numid() to be more race-free.

ALSA: control - add generic LED trigger module as the new control layer

The recent laptops have usually two LEDs assigned to reflect
the speaker and microphone mute state. This implementation
adds a tiny layer on top of the control API which calculates
the state for those LEDs using the driver callbacks.

Two new access flags are introduced to describe the controls
which affects the audio path settings (an easy code change
for drivers).

The LED resource can be shared with multiple sound cards with
this code. The user space controls may be added to the state
chain on demand, too.

This code should replace the LED code in the HDA driver and
add a possibility to easy extend the other drivers (ASoC
codecs etc.).

ALSA: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

ALSA: control: Add verification for kctl accesses

The current implementation of ALSA control API fully relies on the
callbacks of each driver, and there is no verification of the values
passed via API. This patch is an attempt to improve the situation
slightly by adding the validation code for the values stored via info
and get callbacks.

The patch adds a new kconfig, CONFIG_SND_CTL_VALIDATION. It depends
on CONFIG_SND_DEBUG and off as default since the validation would
require a slight overhead including the additional call of info
callback at each get callback invocation.

When this config is enabled, the values stored by each info callback
invocation are verified, namely:
- Whether the info type is valid
- Whether the number of enum items is non-zero
- Whether the given info count is within the allowed boundary

Similarly, the values stored at each get callback are verified as
well:
- Whether the values are within the given range
- Whether the values are aligned with the given step
- Whether any further changes are seen in the data array over the
given info count

The last point helps identifying a possibly invalid data type access,
typically a case where the info callback declares the type being
SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_TYPE_ENUMERATED while the get/put callbacks store
the values in value.integer.value[] array.

When a validation fails, the ALSA core logs an error message including
the device and the control ID, and the API call also returns an
error. So, with the new validation turned on, the driver behavior
difference may be visible on user-space, too -- it's intentional,
though, so that we can catch an error more clearly.

The patch also introduces a new ctl access type,
SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ACCESS_SKIP_CHECK. A driver may pass this flag with
other access bits to indicate that the ctl element won't be verified.
It's useful when a driver code is specially written to access the data
greater than info->count size by some reason. For example, this flag
is actually set now in HD-audio HDMI codec driver which needs to clear
the data array in the case of the disconnected monitor.

Also, the PCM channel-map helper code is slightly modified to avoid
the false-positive hit by this validation code, too.

ALSA: control: Hardening for potential Spectre v1

As recently Smatch suggested, a few places in ALSA control core codes
may expand the array directly from the user-space value with
speculation:

sound/core/control.c:1003 snd_ctl_elem_lock() warn: potential spectre issue 'kctl->vd'
sound/core/control.c:1031 snd_ctl_elem_unlock() warn: potential spectre issue 'kctl->vd'
sound/core/control.c:844 snd_ctl_elem_info() warn: potential spectre issue 'kctl->vd'
sound/core/control.c:891 snd_ctl_elem_read() warn: potential spectre issue 'kctl->vd'
sound/core/control.c:939 snd_ctl_elem_write() warn: potential spectre issue 'kctl->vd'

Although all these seem doing only the first load without further
reference, we may want to stay in a safer side, so hardening with
array_index_nospec() would still make sense.

In this patch, we put array_index_nospec() to the common
snd_ctl_get_ioff*() helpers instead of each caller. These helpers are
also referred from some drivers, too, and basically all usages are to
calculate the array index from the user-space value, hence it's better
to cover there.

ALSA: hda - Fix yet remaining issue with vmaster 0dB initialization

ALSA: hda - Fix yet remaining issue with vmaster 0dB initialization

The previous fix for addressing the breakage in vmaster slave
initialization, commit a91d66129fb9 ("ALSA: hda - Fix incorrect TLV
callback check introduced during set_fs() removal"), introduced a new
helper to process over each slave kctl. However, this helper passes
only the original kctl, not the virtual slave kctl. As a result,
HD-audio driver (which is the only user so far) couldn't initialize
the slave correctly because it's trying to update the value directly
with the original kctl, not with the mapped kctl.

This patch fixes the situation again by passing both the mapped slaved
and original slave kctls to the function. Luckily there is a single
caller as of now, so changing the call signature is no big matter.

ALSA: hda - Fix incorrect TLV callback check introduced during set_fs() removal

ALSA: hda - Fix incorrect TLV callback check introduced during set_fs() removal

The commit 99b5c5bb9a54 ("ALSA: hda - Remove the use of set_fs()")
converted the get_kctl_0dB_offset() call for killing set_fs() usage in
HD-audio codec code. The conversion assumed that the TLV callback
used in HD-audio code is only snd_hda_mixer_amp() and applies the TLV
calculation locally.

Although this assumption is correct, and all slave kctls are actually
with that callback, the current code is still utterly buggy; it
doesn't hit this condition and falls back to the next check. It's
because the function gets called after adding slave kctls to vmaster.
By assigning a slave kctl, the slave kctl object is faked inside
vmaster code, and the whole kctl ops are overridden. Thus the
callback op points to a different value from what we've assumed.

More badly, as reported by the KERNEXEC and UDEREF features of PaX,
the code flow turns into the unexpected pitfall. The next fallback
check is SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ACCESS_TLV_READ access bit, and this always
hits for each kctl with TLV. Then it evaluates the callback function
pointer wrongly as if it were a TLV array. Although currently its
side-effect is fairly limited, this incorrect reference may lead to an
unpleasant result.

For addressing the regression, this patch introduces a new helper to
vmaster code, snd_ctl_apply_vmaster_slaves(). This works similarly
like the existing map_slaves() in hda_codec.c: it loops over the slave
list of the given master, and applies the given function to each
slave. Then the initializer function receives the right kctl object
and we can compare the correct pointer instead of the faked one.

Also, for catching the similar breakage in future, give an error
message when the unexpected TLV callback is found and bail out
immediately.

sched/headers: Prepare to remove spurious <linux/sched.h> inclusion dependencies

In the following patches we are going to remove various headers
from sched.h and other headers that sched.h includes.

To make those patches build cleanly prepare the scene by adding
dependencies to various files that learned to rely on those
to-be-removed dependencies.

These changes all make sense standalone: they add a header for
a data type that a particular .c or .h file is using.
