[PATCH] ALSA: snd-aloop: make preallocated buffer size configurable

[Pierre-Louis Bossart <pierre-louis.bossart@linux.intel.com>]

Default of 2MB of physically-contiguous memory can be
too high for embedded solutions, make the size configurable.

+	  for compatibility reasons. Some distributions may want to
+	  use a smaller size when only one stream is used.

+	  via a proc file (/proc/asound/card*/pcm*/sub*/prealloc), too.
