It is wrong to block the user thread in the next poll when OA data is
already available which could not fit in the user buffer provided in
the previous read. In several cases the exact user buffer size is not
known. Blocking user space in poll can lead to data loss when the
buffer size used is smaller than the available data.
This change fixes this issue and allows user space to read all OA data
even when using a buffer size smaller than the available data using
multiple non-blocking reads rather than staying blocked in poll till
the next timer interrupt.

I think this reset of the pollin field is in the wrong place in the driver.
The decision of whether pollin is true/false should be based off the
difference between head/tail pointers.
In my opinion the best place to do this in at the end of
gen7/8_append_oa_reports functions, under the stream->oa_buffer.ptr_lock.
If everything has been read up to the tail pointer, then there is
nothing to wake up userspace for, otherwise leave pollin untouched.
