From 68fa05d4a82b8f4ca6fa85be85833e35bd6ebef9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Takashi Iwai Date: Thu, 20 Jul 2023 10:20:58 +0200 Subject: ALSA: control: Introduce snd_ctl_find_id_mixer() A commonly seen pattern is to run snd_ctl_find_id() for a mixer control element with a given string. Let's provide a standard helper for achieving that for simplifying the code.
