[ALSA] dynamic minors (1/6): store device type in struct snd_minor

Instead of a comment string, store the device type in the snd_minor
structure. This makes snd_minor more flexible, and has the nice side
effect that we don't need anymore to create a separate snd_minor
template for registering a device but can pass the file_operations
directly to snd_register_device().

This macro worsens the readability of codes. They should be either

Also, the assert displays stack-dump, instead of only the last caller

PCM Midlevel,CA0106 driver,EMU10K1/EMU10K2 driver
Fix by Guillaume Chazarain <guichaz@yahoo.fr>:

Some tunables in /proc have a write() function, but as their
permission does not reflect it, it can be confusing to the user.

So here is a patch that corrects the mode of those files. Note that I
have only tested the 'xrun_debug' entry.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
