The function is improved in the way that if the firmware returns a validation error on the newly sent bytes, then the kernel will automatically restore to the old bytes value for a given kcontrol. This way, if the firmware rejects a data blob then the kernel will also reject it, instead of saving it for the next suspend/resume cycle. The old behaviour is that the kernel would save it anyway and on next firmware boot it would apply the previously-rejected configuration, leading to errors during playback. Additionally, the function also saves previously validated configurations, so that if the firmware does end up rejecting a new bytes value the kernel can send an old, previously-valid configuration.

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.
