Now we have two pointers, one for frames and one for bytes.  Since the
first can be computed from the second, it doesn't make much sense to
keep both around.

The patch below modifies the driver to use a byte-based buffer pointer.
Please rewrite your patch to apply on top on that patch.

USB packets are checksummed, so in case of data corruption, the entire
packets would be dropped by the controller, so you'll never get partial
samples.

With your device, one lost packet could potentially corrupt the entire
following stream.  There is no good error handling strategy for that.


Best regards,

sound: usb-audio: make buffer pointer based on bytes instead on frames

Since there are devices that do not align the size of their data packets
to frame boundaries, the driver needs to be able to keep track of
partial frames.  This patch prepares for support for such devices by
changing the hwptr_done variable from a frame counter to a byte counter.
