Takashi Iwai 27d6abfb99 ALSA: oss: Use kvzalloc() for local buffer allocations
commit 65766ee0bf7fe8b3be80e2e1c3ef54ad59b29476 upstream.

PCM OSS layer may allocate a few temporary buffers, one for the core
read/write and another for the conversions via plugins.  Currently
both are allocated via vmalloc().  But as the allocation size is
equivalent with the PCM period size, the required size might be quite
small, depending on the application.

This patch replaces these vmalloc() calls with kvzalloc() for covering
small period sizes better.  Also, we use "z"-alloc variant here for
addressing the possible uninitialized access reported by syzkaller.

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.
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.
