[alsa-devel] bug report: using snd_BUG_ON() instead of WARN_ON()

Smatch found a couple places try use the return value for snd_BUG_ON() 
without realizing it's always zero or that it can be defined away entirely
under certain configs.

sound/core/info_oss.c
    46          if (snd_BUG_ON(dev < 0 || dev >= SNDRV_OSS_INFO_DEV_COUNT))
    47                  return -ENXIO;
    48          if (snd_BUG_ON(num < 0 || num >= SNDRV_CARDS))
    49                  return -ENXIO;

sound/drivers/opl3/opl3_midi.c +652 snd_opl3_kill_voice(34) warn: buffer overflow 'opl3->voices' 18 <= 20

	opl3_midi.c checks the range with snd_BUG_ON() and then adds 3 so 
	it possibly goes out of bounds.  I'm not sure the situation there.

sound/core/seq/seq_midi.c +403 snd_seq_midisynth_register_port(126) error: buffer overflow 'client->ports_per_device' 8 <= 8

sound/core/info_oss.c +63 snd_oss_info_register(21) error: buffer overflow 'snd_sndstat_strings' 32 <= 32
