Pierre-Louis Bossart 294c4fb8ab ALSA: usb: refine delay information with USB frame counter
Existing code only updates the audio delay when URBs were
submitted/retired. This can introduce an uncertainty of 8ms
on the number of samples played out with the default settings,
and a lot more when URBs convey more packets to reduce the
interrupt rate and power consumption.

This patch relies on the USB frame counter to reduce the
uncertainty to less than 2ms worst-case. The delay information
essentially becomes independent of the URB size and number of
packets. This should help applications like PulseAudio which
require accurate audio timing. Clemens Ladisch reported
a decrease of mplayer's A-V difference from nrpacks down to at
most 1ms.

Thanks to Clemens for also pointing out that the implementation
of frame counters varies between different HCDs. Only the
8 lowest-bits are used to estimate the delay.
