Linus Torvalds 70b20dd7f8 ALSA: update dell-wmi mic-mute registration to new world order
Commit c647f806b8 ("ALSA: hda - Allow multiple ADCs for mic mute LED
controls") changed the return value of the snd_hda_gen_add_micmute_led()
without actually updating the callers.

Admittedly, almost no callers actually cared about the return value.
But one call site very much did: the Dell wmi code.  It would see the
registration return zero, which _used_ to mean "failed" but now means
"success", and clear the dell_micmute_led_set_func pointer.

End result: the successful registration would end up calling the Dell
code that thought it had all failed, and call through a NULL pointer.

To make matters worse, it ends up being a tail-call, and with the
retpoline sequence you don't even see the caller (dell_micmute_update())
in the stack trace, so the error ended up way less obvious than it
should have been.

Fixes: c647f806b8 "ALSA: hda - Allow multiple ADCs for mic mute LED controls"

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.
