Takashi Iwai 7ea0bfaa76 ALSA: aloop: Fix inconsistent format due to incomplete rule
commit b088b53e20c7d09b5ab84c5688e609f478e5c417 upstream.

The extra hw constraint rule for the formats the aloop driver
introduced has a slight flaw, where it doesn't return a positive value
when the mask got changed.  It came from the fact that it's basically
a copy&paste from snd_hw_constraint_mask64().  The original code is
supposed to be a single-shot and it modifies the mask bits only once
and never after, while what we need for aloop is the dynamic hw rule
that limits the mask bits.

This difference results in the inconsistent state, as the hw_refine
doesn't apply the dependencies fully.  The worse and surprisingly
result is that it causes a crash in OSS emulation when multiple
full-duplex reads/writes are performed concurrently (I leave why it
triggers Oops to readers as a homework).

For fixing this, replace a few open-codes with the standard
snd_mask_*() macros.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

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.
