The commitc31427d0d2("ALSA: hda: No preallocation on x86 platforms") changed CONFIG_SND_HDA_PREALLOC_SIZE setup and its default to zero for x86, as the preallocation should work almost all cases. However, this expectation was too naive; some applications try to allocate as the max buffer size as possible, and it leads to the memory exhaustion. More badly, the commit changed the kconfig no longer adjustable for x86, so you can't fix it statically (although it can be still adjusted via procfs). So, practically seen, it's more recommended to set a reasonable limit for x86, too. This patch follows to that experience, and changes the default to 2048 and allow the kconfig adjustable again.

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.
