mainlining shenanigans
6a34367e52
When a new timer instance is created and assigned to the active link in snd_timer_open(), the caller still doesn't (can't) set its callback and callback data. In both the user-timer and the sequencer-timer code, they do manually set up the callbacks after calling snd_timer_open(). This has a potential risk of race when the timer instance is added to the already running timer target, as the callback might get triggered during setting up the callback itself. This patch tries to address it by changing the API usage slightly: - An empty timer instance is created at first via the new function snd_timer_instance_new(). This object isn't linked to the timer list yet. - The caller sets up the callbacks and others stuff for the new timer instance. - The caller invokes snd_timer_open() with this instance, so that it's linked to the target timer. For closing, do similarly: - Call snd_timer_close(). This unlinks the timer instance from the timer list. - Free the timer instance via snd_timer_instance_free() after that.

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.
