usbtv doesn't support power management, so on system suspend the
.disconnect callback of the driver is called. The teardown sequence
includes a call to snd_card_free. Its implementation waits until the
refcount of the sound card device drops to zero, however, if its file is
open, snd_card_file_add takes a reference, which can't be dropped during
the suspend, because the userspace processes are already frozen at this
point. snd_card_free waits for completion forever, leading to a hang on
suspend.
This commit fixes this deadlock condition by replacing snd_card_free
with snd_card_free_when_closed, that doesn't wait until all references
are released, allowing suspend to progress.

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.
