    ALSA: Fix limit of 8 PCM devices in SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_PCM_NEXT_DEVICE · f90c06a2
    Pawel MOLL authored
    When compiled with CONFIG_SND_DYNAMIC_MINORS the ALSA core is fine
    to have more than 8 PCM devices per card, except one place - the
    SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_PCM_NEXT_DEVICE ioctl, which will not enumerate
    devices > 7. This patch fixes the issue, changing the devices list
    organisation.
    
    Instead of adding new device to the tail, the list is now kept always
    ordered (by card number, then device number). Thus, during enumeration,
    it is easy to discover the fact that there is no more given card's
    devices.
    
    Additionally the device field of struct snd_pcm had to be changed to int,
    as its "unsignednity" caused a lot of problems when comparing it to
    potentially negative signed values. (-1 is 0xffffffff or even more then ;-)
