sound: make all 'class' structures const

Now that the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
memory, making all 'class' structures to be declared at build time
placing them into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
allocated at load time.

driver core: class: remove module * from class_create()

The module pointer in class_create() never actually did anything, and it
shouldn't have been requred to be set as a parameter even if it did
something. So just remove it and fix up all callers of the function in
the kernel tree at the same time.

Initializing the static variable to 0 causes the following error
when exec checkpatch:

ERROR: do not initialise statics to 0
FILE: sound/sound_core.c:142:
static int preclaim_oss = 0;

In addition, considering the following way of writing

140: Static int preclaim_oss = 1;
141: #ELSE
142: Static int preclaim_oss = 0;

We can optimize it by IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SOUND_OSS_CORE_PRECLAIM),
so modified it to

sound: fix a memory leak bug

In sound_insert_unit(), the controlling structure 's' is allocated through
kmalloc(). Then it is added to the sound driver list by invoking
__sound_insert_unit(). Later on, if __register_chrdev() fails, 's' is
removed from the list through __sound_remove_unit(). If 'index' is not less
than 0, -EBUSY is returned to indicate the error. However, 's' is not
deallocated on this execution path, leading to a memory leak bug.

To fix the above issue, free 's' before -EBUSY is returned.

llseek: automatically add .llseek fop

All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.

The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.

New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.

The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.

Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.

Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

sound: push BKL into open functions

This moves the lock_kernel() call from soundcore_open
to the individual OSS device drivers, where we can deal
with it one driver at a time if needed, or just kill
off the drivers.

All core components in ALSA already provide
adequate locking in their open()-functions
and do not require the big kernel lock, so
there is no need to add the BKL there.

soundcore_open: Reduce the area BKL coverage

Most of this function is protected by the sound_loader_lock.
We can push down the BKL to this call out err = file->f_op->open(inode,file);

In order to build the sound core without the BKL, we
will need to push the lock_kernel() call into the ~20
device drivers that register their file operations.

Driver-Core: extend devnode callbacks to provide permissions

This allows subsytems to provide devtmpfs with non-default permissions
for the device node. Instead of the default mode of 0600, null, zero,
random, urandom, full, tty, ptmx now have a mode of 0666, which allows
non-privileged processes to access standard device nodes in case no
other userspace process applies the expected permissions.

This also fixes a wrong assignment in pktcdvd and a checkpatch.pl complain.
