This commit replaces the mmap mechanism with the copy() and
fill_silence() callbacks for both capturing and playback for the
virtio-sound driver. This change is required to prevent the updating of
the content of a buffer that is already in the available ring.

The current mechanism splits a dma buffer into descriptors that are
exposed to the device. This dma buffer is shared with the user
application. When the device consumes a buffer, the driver moves the
request from the used ring to available ring.

The driver exposes the buffer to the device without knowing if the
content has been updated from the user. The section 2.8.21.1 of the
virtio spec states that: "The device MAY access the descriptor chains
the driver created and the memory they refer to immediately". If the
device picks up buffers from the available ring just after it is
notified, it happens that the content may be old.

By providing the copy() callback, the driver first updates the content
of the buffer, and then, exposes the buffer to the device by enqueuing
it in the available ring. Thus, device always picks up a buffer that is
updated.

For capturing, the driver starts by exposing all the available buffers
to device. After device updates the content of a buffer, it enqueues it
in the used ring. It is only after the copy() for capturing is issued
that the driver re-enqueues the buffer in the available ring.

Note that the copy() function assumes that user is always writing a
period. Testing shows that this is true but I may be wrong. This RFC
aims at clarifying this.

Thank you for working on this!

Yep, +1!

@Michael do you think we should cc stable and add a Fixes tag since
the driver is not following the virtio spec?

Or it is too risky?

IIUC snd_pcm_ops is changed a bit from previous versions, so we may have
to adapt the patch for stable branches.
