ASoC: qcom: q6asm-dai: Add SNDRV_PCM_INFO_BATCH flag
At the moment, playing audio with PulseAudio with the qdsp6 driver results in distorted sound. It seems like its timer-based scheduling does not work properly with qdsp6 since setting tsched=0 in the PulseAudio configuration avoids the issue. Apparently this happens when the pointer() callback is not accurate enough. There is a SNDRV_PCM_INFO_BATCH flag that can be used to stop PulseAudio from using timer-based scheduling by default. According to https://www.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2014-March/073816.html: The flag is being used in the sense explained in the previous audio meeting -- the data transfer granularity isn't fine enough but aligned to the period size (or less). q6asm-dai reports the position as multiple of prtd->pcm_count = snd_pcm_lib_period_bytes(substream) so it indeed just a multiple of the period size. Therefore adding the flag here seems appropriate and makes audio work out of the box.
