d62ccb59af ALSA: virtio: remove duplicate check if queue is broken
virtqueue_enable_cb() will call virtqueue_poll() which will check if
queue is broken at beginning, so remove the virtqueue_is_broken() call

fe981e6756 ALSA: virtio: use ack callback
This commit uses the ack() callback to determine when a buffer has been
updated, then exposes it to guest.

The current mechanism splits a dma buffer into descriptors that are
exposed to the device. This dma buffer is shared with the user
application. When the device consumes a buffer, the driver moves the
request from the used ring to available ring.

The driver exposes the buffer to the device without knowing if the
content has been updated from the user. The section 2.8.21.1 of the
virtio spec states that: "The device MAY access the descriptor chains
the driver created and the memory they refer to immediately". If the
device picks up buffers from the available ring just after it is
notified, it happens that the content may be old.

When the ack() callback is invoked, the driver exposes only the buffers
that have already been updated, i.e., enqueued in the available ring.
Thus, the device always picks up a buffer that is updated.

For capturing, the driver starts by exposing all the available buffers
to device. After device updates the content of a buffer, it enqueues it
in the used ring. It is only after the ack() for capturing is issued
that the driver re-enqueues the buffer in the available ring.

b38269ecd2 ALSA: virtio: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member
There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare
having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure.
Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these
cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should
no longer be used[2].

Also, make use of the struct_size() helper in kzalloc().

f40a28679e ALSA: virtio: handling control and I/O messages for the PCM device
The driver implements a message-based transport for I/O substream
operations. Before the start of the substream, the hardware buffer is
sliced into I/O messages, the number of which is equal to the current
number of periods. The size of each message is equal to the current
size of one period.

I/O messages are organized in an ordered queue. The completion of the
I/O message indicates an elapsed period (the only exception is the end
of the stream for the capture substream). Upon completion, the message
is automatically re-added to the end of the queue.
