[PATCH 4.19 67/88] ALSA: pcm: oss: Remove superfluous WARN_ON() for mulaw sanity check

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit 949a1ebe8cea7b342085cb6a4946b498306b9493 upstream.

The PCM OSS mulaw plugin has a check of the format of the counter part
whether it's a linear format. The check is with snd_BUG_ON() that
emits WARN_ON() when the debug config is set, and it confuses
syzkaller as if it were a serious issue. Let's drop snd_BUG_ON() for
avoiding that.

While we're at it, correct the error code to a more suitable, EINVAL.
