 *
 * STRATEGY
 *  for playback, we send series of "chunks", which size is equal with the
 *  IBL size, typically 126 samples.  at each end of chunk, the end-of-buffer
 *  interrupt is notified, and the interrupt handler will feed the next chunk.
 *
 *  the current position is calculated from the sample count RMH.
 *  pipe->transferred is the counter of data which has been already transferred.
 *  if this counter reaches to the period size, snd_pcm_period_elapsed() will
 *  be issued.
 *
 *  for capture, the situation is much easier.
 *  to get a low latency response, we'll check the capture streams at each
 *  interrupt (capture stream has no EOB notification).  if the pending
 *  data is accumulated to the period size, snd_pcm_period_elapsed() is
 *  called and the pointer is updated.
 *
 *  the current point of read buffer is kept in pipe->hw_ptr.  note that
 *  this is in bytes.
 *
 *
 * TODO
 *  - linked trigger for full-duplex mode.
 *  - scheduled action on the stream.
