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.

Along with the recent fix for the races of snd_hdac_refresh_widgets() it turned out that the instantiation of widgets sysfs at snd_hdac_sysfs_reinit() could cause a race. The race itself was already covered later by extending the mutex protection range, the commit 98482377 ("ALSA: hda: Fix widget_mutex incomplete protection"), but this also indicated that the call of *_reinit() is basically superfluous, as the widgets shall be created sooner or later from snd_hdac_device_register(). This patch removes the redundant call of snd_hdac_sysfs_reinit() at first. By this removal, the sysfs argument itself in snd_hdac_refresh_widgets() becomes superfluous, too, because the only case sysfs=false is always with codec->widgets=NULL. So, we drop this redundant argument as well. Signed-off-by:Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
