[patch added to 3.12-stable] ALSA: timer: Sync timer deletion at closing the system timer

[Jiri Slaby <jslaby@suse.cz>]

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit f146357f069e71aff8e474c625bcebcd3094b3ab upstream.

ALSA timer core framework has no sync point at stopping because it's
called inside the spinlock.  Thus we need a sync point at close for
avoiding the stray timer task.  This is simply done by implementing
the close callback just calling del_timer_sync().  (It's harmless to
call it unconditionally, as the core timer itself cares of the already
deleted timer instance.)
