Complete() will be run with interrupt enabled, so change to spin_lock_irqsave().
Changelog doesn't match the patch.
Yep, but moreover...

... actually this snd_pcm_stop() call should have been covered by snd_pcm_stream_lock(). Maybe it'd be enough to have a single patch together with the change, i.e. wrapping with snd_pcm_stream_lock_irqsave().
I'll prepare the patch for 3.11 independently from your patch series, so please drop this one.
BTW, the word "cleanup" in the subject is inappropriate. This is rather a fix together with the core change.
And, I wonder whether we can take a safer approach. When the caller condition changed, we often introduced either a different ops (e.g. ioctl case) or a flag for the new condition, at least during the transition period.
Last but not least, is a conversion to tasklet really preferred? tasklet is rather an obsoleted infrastructure nowadays, and people don't recommend to use it any longer, AFAIK.
thanks,
Takashi
