All the PCM ioctl ops of ALSA FireWire drivers do nothing but calling
the default handler.

Now PCM core accepts NULL as the default ioctl ops(*), so let's drop
altogether.

Some devices have a quirk to postpone transmission of isoc packet for
several dozen or hundred isoc cycles since configured to transmit.
Furthermore, some devices have a quirk to transmit isoc packet with
discontinued data of its header.

In 1394 OHCI specification, software allows to start isoc context with
certain isoc cycle. Linux firewire subsystem has kernel API to use it
as well.

This commit uses the functionality of 1394 OHCI controller to handle
the quirks. At present, this feature is convenient to ALSA bebob and
fireface driver. As a result, some devices can be safely handled, as
long as I know:
 - MAudio FireWire solo
 - MAudio ProFire Lightbridge
 - MAudio FireWire 410
 - Roland FA-66

This commit allows ALSA fireface driver to share PCM buffer size for
both capture and playback PCM substream. When AMDTP domain starts for
one of the PCM substream, buffer size of the PCM substream is stores to
AMDTP domain structure. Some AMDTP streams have already run with the
buffer size when another PCM substream starts, therefore the PCM
substream has a constraint to its buffer size.

The number of packets in packet buffer has been fixed number (=48) since
first commit of ALSA IEC 61883-1/6 packet streaming engine.

This commit allows the engine to use variable number of packets in the
buffer. The size is calculated by a parameter in AMDTP domain structure
surely to store the number of events in the packets of buffer. Although
the value of parameter is expected to come from 'period size' parameter
of PCM substream, at present 48 is still used.

<title>ALSA: fireface: use the same size of period for PCM substreams in AMDTP streams</title>

<content type='text'>
In current implementation, when opening a PCM substream, it's needed to
check whether the opposite PCM substream runs. This is to assign
effectual constraints (e.g. sampling rate) to opened PCM substream.

The number of PCM substreams on AMDTP streams in domain is recorded in
own structure. Usage of this count is an alternative of the above check.
This is better because the count is incremented in pcm.hw_params earlier
than pcm.trigger.

This commit replaces the check with the substream count and the value for
the size of PCM period. Unlike the other drivers in ALSA firewire stack,
no MIDI substream is multiplexed into AMDTP stream.

I note that Fireface AMDTP protocol has a quirk that tx stream includes
blank isochronous cycle. The packet for blank cycle is equivalent to
empty or NODATA packet in IEC 61883-6, thus the protocol is similar to
blocking transmission method of IEC 61883-6. On the other hand, rx
stream adopts non-blocking transmission method. Although the difference
of transmission method between tx/rx streams precisely brings different
timing for a certain amount of events due to their different calculation
for data blocks per packet, it's possible to approximate enough amount
of events mostly has the same timing. Actually current ALSA IEC 61883-1/6
engine uses large amount of data blocks for each hardware IRQ
(=16 packets).
