Subject: [PATCH 3.11 168/233] ALSA: bits vs bytes bug in snd_card_create()

3.11.10.4 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@...cle.com>

commit 4c3773eda49c872a3034382f8ec3080002e715bf upstream.

The test here is intended intended to prevent shift wrapping bugs when
we do "1U << idx2".  We should consider the number of bits in a u32
instead of the number of bytes.

[fix another chunk similarly by tiwai]

Fixes: 7bb2491b35a2 ('ALSA: Add kconfig to specify the max card numbers')
