Linux kernel modifications for the Kernel Hacking exam
1f810d2b6b
The HDaudio stream allocation is done first, and in a second step the
LOSIDV parameter is programmed for the multi-link used by a codec.
This leads to a possible stream_tag leak, e.g. if a DisplayAudio link
is not used. This would happen when a non-Intel graphics card is used
and userspace unconditionally uses the Intel Display Audio PCMs without
checking if they are connected to a receiver with jack controls.
We should first check that there is a valid multi-link entry to
configure before allocating a stream_tag. This change aligns the
dma_assign and dma_cleanup phases.

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.
