4.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> commit db68577966abc1aeae4ec597b3dcfa0d56e92041 upstream. The pointer callbacks of ali5451 driver may return the value at the boundary occasionally, and it results in the kernel warning like snd_ali5451 0000:00:06.0: BUG: , pos = 16384, buffer size = 16384, period size = 1024 It seems that folding the position offset is enough for fixing the warning and no ill-effect has been seen by that.
