[PATCH 1/3] ALSA: pcm - introduce device_buffer

[Vinod Koul <vinod.koul@linux.intel.com>]

In many modern SoCs the audio DSP can buffer the PCM ring buffer data, typically
in SRAMs or any other memory available.
Today we have no means to represent this buffering and ALSA in some cases when
device still has to render this buffer but app_ptr is equal to hw_ptr alsa
wrongly detects an overrun

This patch tries to add a new field "device_buffer" to represent buffering done in
DSPs. This value is also used for the xrun calculations in ALSA
