Use kzalloc() instead of kmalloc() so that we don't need to rely fully
on the slave get() callback to clear the control value that might be
copied to user-space.

In slave_update() of vmaster code ignores the error from the slave
get() callback and copies the values. It's not only about the missing
error code but also that this may potentially lead to a leak of
uninitialized variables when the slave get() don't clear them.
This patch fixes slave_update() not to copy the potentially
uninitialized values when an error is returned from the slave get()
callback, and to propagate the error value properly.

The previous fix for addressing the breakage in vmaster slave
initialization, commit a91d66129f ("ALSA: hda - Fix incorrect TLV
callback check introduced during set_fs() removal"), introduced a new
helper to process over each slave kctl. However, this helper passes
only the original kctl, not the virtual slave kctl. As a result,
HD-audio driver (which is the only user so far) couldn't initialize
the slave correctly because it's trying to update the value directly
with the original kctl, not with the mapped kctl.
This patch fixes the situation again by passing both the mapped slaved
and original slave kctls to the function. Luckily there is a single
caller as of now, so changing the call signature is no big matter.

The commit 99b5c5bb9a ("ALSA: hda - Remove the use of set_fs()")
converted the get_kctl_0dB_offset() call for killing set_fs() usage in
HD-audio codec code. The conversion assumed that the TLV callback
used in HD-audio code is only snd_hda_mixer_amp() and applies the TLV
calculation locally.
Although this assumption is correct, and all slave kctls are actually
with that callback, the current code is still utterly buggy; it
doesn't hit this condition and falls back to the next check. It's
because the function gets called after adding slave kctls to vmaster.
By assigning a slave kctl, the slave kctl object is faked inside
vmaster code, and the whole kctl ops are overridden. Thus the
callback op points to a different value from what we've assumed.
More badly, as reported by the KERNEXEC and UDEREF features of PaX,
the code flow turns into the unexpected pitfall. The next fallback
check is SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ACCESS_TLV_READ access bit, and this always
hits for each kctl with TLV. Then it evaluates the callback function
pointer wrongly as if it were a TLV array. Although currently its
side-effect is fairly limited, this incorrect reference may lead to an
unpleasant result.
For addressing the regression, this patch introduces a new helper to
vmaster code, snd_ctl_apply_vmaster_slaves(). This works similarly
like the existing map_slaves() in hda_codec.c: it loops over the slave
list of the given master, and applies the given function to each
slave. Then the initializer function receives the right kctl object
and we can compare the correct pointer instead of the faked one.
Also, for catching the similar breakage in future, give an error
message when the unexpected TLV callback is found and bail out
immediately.

The commit [1ca2f2ec: ALSA: vmaster: Add snd_ctl_sync_vmaster() helper
function] changed master_put() function and the check for the required
vmaster hook call is wrongly performed now, which results in the
missing hook call upon "Master Playback Switch" value changes.
This patch corrects the check logic.

Introduce a new helper function, snd_ctl_sync_vmaster(), which updates
the slave put callbacks forcibly as well as calling the hook. This
will be used in the upcoming patch in HD-audio codec driver for
toggling the mute in vmaster slaves.
Along with the new function, the old snd_ctl_sync_vmaster_hook() is
replaced as a macro calling with the argument hook_only=true.

When a value of a vmaster slave control is changed, the ctl change
notification is sometimes ignored. This happens when the master
control overrides, e.g. when the corresponding master control is
muted. The reason is that slave_put() returns the value of the actual
slave put callback, and it doesn't reflect the virtual slave value
change.
This patch fixes the function just to return 1 whenever a slave value
is changed.

Add new types for TLV dB scale specified with min/max values instead
of min/step since the resolution can't match always with the one
a device provides. For example, usb audio devices give 1/256 dB
resolution while ALSA TLV is based on 1/100 dB resolution.
The new min/max types have less problems because the possible
rounding error happens only at min/max.

Added snd_ctl_add_slave_uncached() function to add a slave element
with volatile controls. The values of normal slave elements are
supposed to be cachable, i.e. they are changed only via the put
callbacks. OTOH, when a slave element is volatile and its values may
be changed by other reason (e.g. hardware status change), the values
will get inconsistent.
The new function allows the slave elements with volatile changes.
When the slave is tied with this call, the native get callback is
issued at each time so that the values are always updated.
