[alsa-devel] [PATCH v2 - seq 1/1] ALSA seq: expose the card number of ALSA seq clients

Expose the card number of seq clients. This allows interested userspace
programs to discover the hardware device that backs a particular seq
client. Before this change, the only way to get information about the
hardware for a client was by using brittle heuristics.

SNDRV_SEQ_VERSION is not yet incremented in this patch, but should be
relatively soon.
