[PATCH 0/3] ALSA: control: Locking optimization and cleanups

[Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

this is a series of patches to reduce the locking at control elements
look-up and cleanups of APIs.  It was inspired from the discussion
thread about the mutex inversions of Cirrus codec driver, but this
version goes further, dropping the locking in normal use cases.

The snd_ctl_find_*_unlocked() API functions are completely dropped, as
there is no real use any longer.

The patch touches / removes ASoC code to drop and replace *_locked()
API calls.
