[PATCH v2 5/5] ALSA: xen-front: Implement ALSA virtual sound driver

[Oleksandr Andrushchenko]

From: Oleksandr Andrushchenko <oleksandr_andrushchenko@xxxxxxxx>

Implement essential initialization of the sound driver:
  - introduce required data structures
  - handle driver registration
  - handle sound card registration
  - register sound driver on backend connection
  - remove sound driver on backend disconnect

Initialize virtual sound card with streams according to the
Xen store configuration.

Implement ALSA driver operations including:
- manage frontend/backend shared buffers
- manage Xen bus event channel states

Implement requests from front to back for ALSA
PCM operations.
 - report ALSA period elapsed event: handle XENSND_EVT_CUR_POS
   notifications from the backend when stream position advances
   during playback/capture. The event carries a value of how
   many octets were played/captured at the time of the event.
 - implement explicit stream parameter negotiation between
   backend and frontend: handle XENSND_OP_HW_PARAM_QUERY request
   to read/update configuration space for the parameter given:
   request passes desired parameter interval and the response to
   this request returns min/max interval for the parameter to be used.
