Takashi Iwai e94fdbd7b2 ALSA: control: Track in-flight control read/write/tlv accesses
Although the power state check is performed in various places (e.g. at
the entrance of quite a few ioctls), there can be still some pending
tasks that already went into the ioctl handler or other ops, and those
may access the hardware even after the power state check.  For
example, kcontrol access ioctl paths that call info/get/put callbacks
may update the hardware registers.  If a system wants to assure the
free from such hw access (like the case of PCI rescan feature we're
going to implement in future), this situation must be avoided, and we
have to sync such in-flight tasks finishing beforehand.

For that purpose, this patch introduces a few new things in core code:
- A refcount, power_ref, and a wait queue, power_ref_sleep, to the
  card object
- A few new helpers, snd_power_ref(), snd_power_unref(),
  snd_power_ref_and_wait(), and snd_power_sync_ref()

In the code paths that call kctl info/read/write/tlv ops, we check the
power state with the newly introduced snd_power_ref_and_wait().  This
function also takes the card.power_ref refcount for tracking this
in-flight task.  Once after the access finishes, snd_power_unref() is
called to released the refcount in return.  So the driver can sync via
snd_power_sync_ref() assuring that all in-flight tasks have been
finished.

As of this patch, snd_power_sync_ref() is called only at
snd_card_disconnect(), but it'll be used in other places in future.

Note that atomic_t is used for power_ref intentionally instead of
refcount_t.  It's because of the design of refcount_t type; refcount_t
cannot be zero-based, and it cannot do dec_and_test() call for
multiple times, hence it's not suitable for our purpose.

Also, this patch changes snd_power_wait() to accept only
SNDRV_CTL_POWER_D0, which is the only value that makes sense.
In later patch, the snd_power_wait() calls will be cleaned up.

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.
