I should do those here in the trigger. Remember that the trigger callback is designed really as a "trigger". That is, it should be executed as shortly as possible. The callback is even in the atomic context within spinlock and irq disablement, so any function that my sleep shall cause lockup. If you need to allocate something, it should be done in either open, hw_params or prepare callback. Only start and stop are done in trigger callback.
