From: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@xxxxxxxxx> It is unsafe to free buffers in line6_pcm_stop(), which is not allowed to sleep, since urbs cannot be killed completely there and only unlinked. This means I/O may still be in progress and the URB completion function still gets invoked. This may result in memory corruption when buffer_in is freed but I/O is still pending. These issues can be resolved by performing buffer allocation/freeing in the .hw_params/.hw_free callbacks instead. The ALSA documentation also recommends doing buffer allocation/freeing in these callbacks.
