[v2,2/5] ALSA: pcm: Drop async signal support

Commit Message

Takashi Iwai July 17, 2022, 7:05 a.m. UTC

The async signal (SIGIO) support for ALSA PCM API has been never used
by real applications, but yet it can be a cause of various potential
deadlocks, as spotted by syzkaller.  Let's drop the feature as the
simplest solution.
