Takashi Sakamoto 7cc994f27e kselftest: alsa: optimization for SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_ACCESS_VOLATILE
The volatile attribute of control element means that the hardware can
voluntarily change the state of control element independent of any
operation by software. ALSA control core necessarily sends notification
to userspace subscribers for any change from userspace application, while
it doesn't for the hardware's voluntary change.

This commit adds optimization for the attribute. Even if read value is
different from written value, the test reports success as long as the
target control element has the attribute. On the other hand, the
difference is itself reported for developers' convenience.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
