[alsa-devel] [PATCH 14/39] ALSA: seq: optimize set_client_info function to new design

[Takashi Sakamoto]

In former commit, actual operations of each ioctl command get argument
in kernel space. Copying from/to user space is performed outside of
the function.

This commit optimizes to the new design.
