Linux kernel source tree
Currently the PCM core calls snd_pcm_unlink() always unconditionally at closing a stream. However, since snd_pcm_unlink() invokes the global rwsem down, the lock can be easily contended. More badly, when a thread runs in a high priority RT-FIFO, it may stall at spinning. Basically the call of snd_pcm_unlink() is required only for the linked streams that are already rare occasion. For normal use cases, this code path is fairly superfluous. As an optimization (and also as a workaround for the RT problem above in normal situations without linked streams), this patch adds a check before calling snd_pcm_unlink() and calls it only when needed.

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.
