ALSA: usb-audio: relax urb data align. restriction HVR-950Q and HVR-850 only
Addressing audio quality problem.
In sound/usb/usbaudio.c, for the Hauppage HVR-950Q and HVR-850 only, change
retire_capture_urb to allow transfers on audio sub-slot boundaries rather
than audio slots boundaries.
With these devices the left and right channel samples can be split between
two different urbs. Throwing away extra channel samples causes a sound
quality problem for stereo streams as the left and right channels are
swapped repeatedly, perhaps many times per second.
Urbs unaligned on sub-slot boundaries are still truncated to the next
lowest stride (audio slot) to retain synchronization on samples even
though left/right channel synchronization may be lost in this case.
Detect the quirk using a case statement in snd_usb_audio_probe.
