Subject[PATCH 4.9 027/148] ALSA: seq: Remove spurious WARN_ON() at timer check
Date
4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

commit 43a3542870328601be02fcc9d27b09db467336ef upstream.

The use of snd_BUG_ON() in ALSA sequencer timer may lead to a spurious
WARN_ON() when a slave timer is deployed as its backend and a
corresponding master timer stops meanwhile. The symptom was triggered
by syzkaller spontaneously.

Since the NULL timer is valid there, rip off snd_BUG_ON().
