Takashi Iwai 471be437be ALSA: control: Use guard() for locking
We can simplify the code gracefully with new guard() macro and co for
automatic cleanup of locks.

The lops calls under multiple rwsems are factored out as a simple
macro, so that it can be called easily from snd_ctl_dev_register()
and snd_ctl_dev_disconnect().

There are a few remaining explicit rwsem and spinlock calls, and those
are the places where the lock downgrade happens or where the temporary
unlock/relocking happens -- which guard() doens't cover well yet.

Only the code refactoring, and no functional changes.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
