[PATCH 0/5] ALSA: Make always-successful helpers return void

From: Ingyu Jang

Date: Sun Nov 01 2026 - 12:22:01 EST


These helpers always return 0, so the error checks on their return
values never trigger. This series makes them return void and removes
the dead checks, one driver per patch.

This follows up on the earlier discussion:
