Instead of manually managing its DMA buffers using
dma_{alloc,free}_coherent() lets the sound core take care of this using
managed buffers.
On one hand this reduces the amount of boiler plate code, but the main
motivation for the change is to use the shared code where possible. This
makes it easier to argue about correctness and that the code does not
contain subtle bugs like data leakage or similar.

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.
