[PATCH - alsa-lib 1/1] Change card/pid get functions to return -ENOSYS if the kernel is too old

[Adam Goode <agoode@google.com>]

When trying to get the pid or card of a client, the get functions will
return -1 if there is no pid or card for a client. Clients have zero or
one of these, so -1 is correct for these cases. But we also need to detect
the case where the kernel cannot tell us if there is a card or pid, so
that userspace can fallback to probing this information in the old way.
