Here's a quick patch to fix the third worst offender,
snd_pcm_oss_change_params. Compiles fine but not tested yet.
# sound/core/oss/pcm_oss.c 1.20 -> 1.21
#
# The following is the BitKeeper ChangeSet Log
# --------------------------------------------
# 03/02/21 mulix@alhambra.mulix.org 1.1007
# snd_pcm_oss_change_params was a stack offender, having three large
# structs on the stack. Allocate those structs on the heap and change
# the code accordingly.
