4.2.8-ckt4 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me
know.

From: Takashi Iwai <ti...@suse.de>
commit da10816e3d923565b470fec78a674baba794ed33 upstream.
ALSA OSS sequencer spews a kernel error message ("ALSA: seq_oss: too
many applications") when user-space tries to open more than the
limit. This means that it can easily fill the log buffer.
Since it's merely a normal error, it's safe to suppress it via
pr_debug() instead.
