So far the only supported MIDI device is the MPU401 port on SoundBlaster
(and only on SB on isapnp, since we do not have locators with multiple
values yet).
The changes is to allow some limited mixer manipulation through
the audio device (instead of the mixer device).
This rendered 4 methods in audio_hw_if unused so garbage collect these.
- It is now possible to handle devices that want "looping" DMA,
e.g. the SoundBlaster correctly. The WSS and SB drivers use this.
To do this several new methods were introduced in audio_hw_if.
- Different silence handling (forced by previous change).
- The audio driver can now be mmap()-ed, but due to problems in
the VM system only for writing for now.
- The OSS (Linux) audio emulation takes advantage of some of the
new features.
