All users of snd_seq_create_kernel_client() have to set the client name
anyway, so we can just pass the name as parameter.  This relieves us
from having to muck around with a struct snd_seq_client_info in these
cases.

The fields of struct snd_seq_client_callback either aren't used or are
always set to the same value, so we can get rid of it altogether.

This patch creates a new kstrdup library function and changes the "local"
implementations in several places to use this function.

Most of the changes come from the sound and net subsystems.  The sound part
had already been acknowledged by Takashi Iwai and the net part by David S.
Miller.

I left UML alone for now because I would need more time to read the code
carefully before making changes there.

Checking a pointer for NULL before calling kfree() on it is redundant,
kfree() deals with NULL pointers just fine.
This patch removes such checks from sound/

This patch also makes another, but closely related, change.
It avoids casting pointers about to be kfree()'ed.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
