ALSA: usb-audio: Workaround for XRUN at prepare
Under certain situations (typically in the implicit feedback mode), USB-audio driver starts a playback stream already at PCM prepare call even before the actual PCM trigger-START call. For implicit feedback mode, this effectively starts two streams for data and sync endpoints, and if a coupled sync stream gets XRUN at this point, it results in an error -EPIPE. The problem is that currently we return -EPIPE error as is from the prepare. Then application tries to recover again via the prepare call, but it'll fail again because the sync-stop is missing. The sync-stop is missing because it's an internal trigger call (hence the PCM core isn't involved). Since we'll need to re-issue the prepare in anyway when trapped into this pitfall, this patch attempts to address it in a bit different way; namely, the driver tries to prepare once again after syncing the stop manually by itself -- so applications don't see the internal error. At the second failure, we report the error as is, but this shouldn't happen in normal situations.
