Now the ALSA memory allocator helper supports the new non-cached pages, let's use the new type, SNDRV_DMA_TYPE_DEV_UC_SG, for HD-audio driver. This allows us to reduce lots of codes. As another positive side-effect by this patch, the long-standing issue with non-snoop mode playing in the non-mmap mode is fixed. The core memalloc helper does the proper pgprot setup for non-cached pages for vmap(), which was missing in the past.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
