one of big pending patches on my local tree is the removal of seq-instr interface. The only real user of instrument layer is OPL3 patch loader, and I'd like to move this to hwdep interface.
The patch below is to move the OPL3 patch loading to hwdep device. Two more patches will follow in other mails for alsa-lib addition and sbiload change.
Can someone test whether these patches work? Unfortunately, I have no hardware with OPL3 at this moment around here.
Working fine. Applied the patches against alsa-{kernel,lib,tools}-1.0.15.

If you need/want me to, I can also test against an OPL2 (AdLib clone card) but I assume that'll be okay?
