An element instance can have several elements with the same feature. Some userspace applications can add such an element instance by add operation with the number of elements. Then, the element instance gets a memory object to keep states of these elements.
But the element instance has just one memory object for the elements. This causes the same result to each read/write operations to the different elements.
This commit fixes this bug by allocating enough memory objects to the element instance for each of elements.

I don't agree this indication.
The 'ucontrol' has ID information re-calculated by the caller (snd_ctl_elem_read() / snd_ctl_elem_write()), thus it's not directly passed from userspace. If the information includes something wrong, the caller returns error and don't execute callee.
The snd_ctl_elem_add() has already allocated enough memory, so there're no wrong reference as long as the re-calculated ID includes larger numid than (kctl->numid + kctl->count), or larger index than kctl->count.
Are there any cases that the re-calculated ID includes such wrong information after passing these functions below?
- snd_ctl_find_id() -> find kctl with given ID info
- snd_ctl_get_ioff() -> calculate offset with kctl and given ID
- snd_ctl_build_ioff() -> re-calculate ID with kctl and the offset
If it still includes wrong information, it's the caller's fault and should be fixed.
Hrm, OK, although I prefer having a safer check in the callee side as a pessimist (there are lots of direct calls of put callbacks in many driver codes). Let's cross fingers.
Applied now. Thanks.
