It's moved to the new Documentation/sound/kernel-api subdirectory that

The GPL legal note was removed, as it's superfluous (and doesn't fit
with ReST kernel docs pretty well).

Currently the ALSA proc handler allows read or write even if the proc
file were write-only or read-only.  It's mostly harmless, does thing
but allocating memory and ignores the input/output.  But it doesn't
tell user about the invalid use, and it's confusing and inconsistent
in comparison with other proc files.

This patch adds some sanity checks and let the proc handler returning
an -EIO error when the invalid read/write is performed.

The ALSA proc handler allows currently the write in the unlimited size
until kmalloc() fails.  But basically the write is supposed to be only
for small inputs, mostly for one line inputs, and we don't have to
handle too large sizes at all.  Since the kmalloc error results in the
kernel warning, it's better to limit the size beforehand.

This patch adds the limit of 16kB, which must be large enough for the
currently existing code.
