*-objs suffix is reserved rather for (user-space) host programs while
usually *-y suffix is used for kernel drivers (although *-objs works
for that purpose for now).

Let's correct the old usages of *-objs in Makefiles.

The compile warning with -Wformat-truncation at
xen_snd_front_cfg_card() is false-positive; the loop can be only for
SNDRV_PCM_DEVICES which is at most 32.

For suppressing the warning, replace snprintf() with scnprintf().
As stated in the above, truncation doesn't matter.

<title>ALSA: xen: Convert to generic PCM copy ops</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch converts the xen frontend driver code to use the new
unified PCM copy callback.  It's a straightforward conversion from
*_user() to *_iter() variants.

Note that copy_from/to_iter() returns the copied bytes, hence the
error condition is adjusted accordingly.

<title>ALSA: xen-front: refactor deprecated strncpy</title>

<content type='text'>
`strncpy` is deprecated for use on NUL-terminated destination strings [1].

A suitable replacement is `strscpy` [2] due to the fact that it
guarantees NUL-termination on its destination buffer argument which is
_not_ always the case for `strncpy`!

It should be noted that, in this case, the destination buffer has a
length strictly greater than the source string. Moreover, the source
string is NUL-terminated (and so is the destination) which means there
was no real bug happening here. Nonetheless, this patch would get us one
step closer to eliminating the `strncpy` API in the kernel, as its use
is too ambiguous. We need to favor less ambiguous replacements such as:
strscpy, strscpy_pad, strtomem and strtomem_pad (amongst others).

Technically, my patch yields subtly different behavior. The original
implementation with `strncpy` would fill the entire destination buffer
with null bytes [3] while `strscpy` will leave the junk, uninitialized
bytes trailing after the _mandatory_ NUL-termination. So, if somehow
`pcm-&gt;name` or `card-&gt;driver/shortname/longname` require this
NUL-padding behavior then `strscpy_pad` should be used. My
interpretation, though, is that the aforementioned fields are just fine
as NUL-terminated strings. Please correct my assumptions if needed and
I'll send in a v2.

<title>xen: make remove callback of xen driver void returned</title>

<content type='text'>
Since commit fc7a6209d571 ("bus: Make remove callback return void")
forces bus_type::remove be void-returned, it doesn't make much sense for
any bus based driver implementing remove callbalk to return non-void to
its caller.

This change is for xen bus based drivers.
