The PCM delay accounting in USB-audio driver is a bit complex to follow, and this is an attempt to improve the readability and provide some potential fix. Basically, the PCM position delay is calculated from two factors: the in-flight data on URBs and the USB frame counter. For the playback stream, we advance the hwptr already at submitting URBs. Those "in-flight" data amount is now tracked, and this is used as the base value for the PCM delay correction. The in-flight data is decreased again at URB completion in return. For the capture stream, OTOH, there is no in-flight data, hence the delay base is zero. The USB frame counter is used in addition for correcting the current position. The reference frame counter is updated at each submission and receiving time, and the difference from the current counter value is taken into account. In this patch, each in-flight data bytes is recorded in the new snd_usb_ctx.queued field, and the total in-flight amount is tracked in snd_usb_substream.inflight_bytes field, as the replacement of last_delay field. Note that updating the hwptr after URB completion doesn't work for PulseAudio who tries to scratch the buffer on the fly; USB-audio is basically a double-buffer implementation, hence the scratching the buffer can't work for the already submitted data. So we always update hwptr beforehand. It's not ideal, but the delay account should give enough correctness.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
