Takashi Iwai 111b0cdb97 ALSA: seq: Allow the modular sequencer registration
Many drivers bind the sequencer stuff in off-load by another driver
module, so that it's loaded only on demand.  In the current code, this
mechanism doesn't work when the driver is built-in while the sequencer
is module.  We check with IS_REACHABLE() and enable only when the
sequencer is in the same level of build.

However, this is basically a overshoot.  The binder code
(snd-seq-device) is an individual module from the sequencer core
(snd-seq), and we just have to make the former a built-in while
keeping the latter a module for allowing the scenario like the above.

This patch achieves that by rewriting Kconfig slightly.  Now, a driver
that provides the manual sequencer device binding should select
CONFIG_SND_SEQ_DEVICE in a way as
	select SND_SEQ_DEVICE if SND_SEQUENCER != n

Note that the "!=n" is needed here to avoid the influence of the
sequencer core is module while the driver is built-in.

Also, since rawmidi.o may be linked with snd_seq_device.o when
built-in, we have to shuffle the code to make the linker happy.
(the kernel linker isn't smart enough yet to handle such a case.)
That is, snd_seq_device.c is moved to sound/core from sound/core/seq,
as well as Makefile.

Last but not least, the patch replaces the code using IS_REACHABLE()
with IS_ENABLED(), since now the condition meets always when enabled.

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
