The original code should be:

diff --git a/sound/core/control_led.c b/sound/core/control_led.c
index f975cc85772b..b44abefcb593 100644
--- a/sound/core/control_led.c
+++ b/sound/core/control_led.c
@@ -530,7 +530,7 @@ static ssize_t set_led_id(struct snd_ctl_led_card 
*led_card, const char *buf, si
                           bool attach)
  {
         char buf2[256], *s, *os;
-       size_t len = max(sizeof(s) - 1, count);
+       size_t len = min(sizeof(buf2) - 1, count);
         struct snd_ctl_elem_id id;
         int err;

But it can be replaced with:

diff --git a/sound/core/control_led.c b/sound/core/control_led.c

         memset(&id, 0, sizeof(id));
         id.iface = SNDRV_CTL_ELEM_IFACE_MIXER;
         s = buf2;

I'll send a patch ASAP.
