Commit 8fa7292fee5c ("treewide: Switch/rename to timer_delete[_sync]()")
switched del_timer to timer_delete, but did not modify the comment for
snd_korg1212_prepare(). Now fix it.

Wouldn't it be better to just remove all that? Or at least document
what it is good for?

This code comes from commit 4d6dcf60b9 ("ALSA update   - documentation 
   - control API - added multi-elements to reduce memory usage   - 
improved preallocation of DMA buffers   - CS46xx driver - added support 
for secondary codec   - HDSP driver - big update     - firmware is 
loaded with hdsptool now   - pmac driver updates (fixed oops and beep 
stuff)   - VIA82xx driver updated   - ymfpci driver updated   - drivers 
updated to new PnP layer     - wavefront, ad1816a, cs423x, es18xx, 
interwave, opl3sa2, cmi8330") in the history tree [1] as part of a huge 
patch.

I couldn't find any useful information about this specific code within 
that commit.

Since I'm uncertain if we truly don't need it (this code is marked with 
"FIXME" above), I've kept this comment.

Furthermore, this driver has other sections of commented-out code as 
well, so a more comprehensive cleanup of this driver might be a better 
approach in the future.

If possible, I'd also be happy to contribute to that effort.

However, this commit isn't intended for that purpose.

Its sole aim is to clean up the comment that were missed by commit 
8fa7292fee5c ("treewide: Switch/rename to timer_delete_sync") and should 
have been updated.

Yeah, the code is quite old and dirty, and this timer stuff can be
omitted completely by introducing the proper sync_stop PCM ops.
Let me rewrite the code instead.


thanks,
