Why it's needed for stable?  Fixing any real bugs?

In this code, it still locks/unlocks shortly unnecessarily.
It should be rather like:
	switch (_IOC_NR(cmd)) {
 	case _IOC_NR(SNDRV_COMPRESS_IOCTL_VERSION):
		...
 	case _IOC_NR(SNDRV_COMPRESS_GET_CAPS):
		....	
	default:
		retval = snd_compress_locked_ioctls(f, stream, cmd, arg);
	}
