Hi Mark,
This is another patch for ALSA on the MPC5200 that was sent to the ALSA
devel list. I'm not sure if you noticed it.
Since I've submitted the patch to the list, we've been able to test it,
and audio continues to play right through appl_ptr wrapping back around
to the beginning of the buffer.
I've attached the patch, for your convenience.

Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: MPC5200: Support for buffer wrap around
The code in psc_dma_bcom_enqueue_tx() didn't account for the fact that
s->runtime->control->appl_ptr can wrap around to the beginning of the
buffer. This change fixes this problem.
