[PATCH v3] ALSA: dmaengine_pcm: Consider DMA cache caused delay in pointer callback

[Peter Ujfalusi]

Some DMA engines can have big FIFOs which adds to the latency.
The DMAengine framework can report the FIFO utilization in bytes. Use this
information for the delay reporting.

Hi,

Changes since v2:
- align the substream->runtime users to use runtime.
- added Reviewed-by from Takashi-san

Changes since v1:
- use bytes_to_frames() for the DMA delay calculation
- Drop changes to soc-pcm

5.6-rc1 now have support for reporting the DMA cached data.
With this patch we can include it to the delay calculation.
The first DMA driver which reports this is the TI K3 UDMA driver.

Regards,
Peter
