ALSA: Drop hackish GFP giveaway for CONTINUOUS pages This is a series of cleanup patches for dropping the current hackish way of passing the GFP_* flags for CONTINOUS and VMALLOC memory allocations. There are only three users for this legacy feature, and all of them seem superfluous. And, if any driver requires the memory restriction in future, it can now pass the proper device pointer for specifying the DMA mask.

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.
