This patch allows to disable period interrupts which are
not needed when the application relies on a system timer
to wake-up and refill the ring buffer. The behavior of
the driver is left unchanged, and interrupts are only
disabled if the application requests this configuration.
The behavior in case of underruns is slightly different,
instead of being detected during the period interrupts the
underruns are detected when the application calls
snd_pcm_update_avail, which in turns forces a refresh of the
hw pointer and shows the buffer is empty.
More specifically this patch makes a lot of sense when
PulseAudio relies on timer-based scheduling to access audio
devices such as HDAudio or Intel SST. Disabling interrupts
removes two unwanted wake-ups due to period elapsed events
in low-power playback modes. It also simplifies PulseAudio
voice modules used for speech calls.
To quote Lennart "This patch looks very interesting and
desirable. This is something have long been waiting for."
Support for this in hardware drivers is optional.
