Subject: [ALSA] Unregister device files at disconnection
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c461482c8072bb073e6146db320d3da85cdc89ad;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[ALSA] Unregister device files at disconnection

Orignally proposed by Sam Revitch <sam.revitch@gmail.com>.
Unregister device files at disconnection to avoid the futher accesses.
Also, the dev_unregister callback is removed and replaced with the
combination of disconnect + free.
A new function snd_card_free_when_closed() is introduced, which is
used in USB disconnect callback.
