Status of snd_pcm_rewind()

Hi!

What's the status of snd_pcm_rewind()? Is it available on all devices?
I assume not (at least dmix doesn't...). But I guess I can safely
assume it is available when mmap is used? Is there any API function to
test if it is available?

I am working on adding "glitch-free" support to PulseAudio. I.e. have
a huge playback buffer (> 2s), and schedule playback based on system
timers instead of sound card interrupts, thus allowing us to
dynamically adjust the inetrrupt frequency to the clients that are
connected, and thus save power. I can enable this technique only if I
can rewrite the playback buffer whenever I need to, thus I need to in
advance if snd_pcm_rewind() will work or not.
