ALSA: control: remove entry limitation for list operation
In current implementation of ALSA control core, list operation has a limitation to handle 16384 entries at once. This seems due to allocation in kernel space to copy data from user space. With a commit 53e7bf452584 ("ALSA: control: Simplify snd_ctl_elem_list() implementation"), for the operation, ALSA control core copies data into user space directly. No need to care of kernel spaces anymore. This commit purges the limitation. Signed-off-by: Takashi Sakamoto <o-takashi@sakamocchi.jp> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
