      [PATCH] ALSA: Fix sysfs breakage · 7d2aae1e
      Takashi Iwai authored
      The recent change for a new sysfs tree with card* object breaks the
      /sys/class/sound tree if CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is enabled.
      The device in each entry doesn't point the correct device object:
      
        /sys/class/sound
        ...
        |-- pcmC0D0c
        |   |-- dev
        |   |-- device -> ../../../class/sound/card0
        |   |-- pcm_class
        |   |-- power
        |   |   `-- wakeup
        |   |-- subsystem -> ../../../class/sound
        |   `-- uevent
      
      Also, this change breaks some drivers (like sound/arm/*) referring
      card->dev directly to obtain the device object for memory handling.
      
      This patch reverts the semantics of card->dev to the former version,
      which points to a real device object.  The card* object is stored in a
      new card->card_dev field, instead.  The device parent is chosen either
      card->dev or card->card_dev according to CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED to
      keep the tree compatibility.
      Also, card* isn't created if CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is enabled.  The
      reason of card* object is a root of all beloing devices, and it makes
      little sense if each sound device points to the real device object
      directly.
