2.6.34-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Clemens Ladisch <clemens(a)ladisch.de>

commit ead4046b2fdfd69acc4272e693afd249ad3eb689 upstream.

Commit 7910b4a1db63fefc3d291853d33c34c5b6352e8e in 2.6.34 changed the
runtime->boundary calculation to make this value a multiple of both the
buffer_size and the period_size, because the latter is assumed by the
runtime->hw_ptr_interrupt calculation.

However, due to the lack of a ioctl that could read the software
parameters before they are set, the kernel requires that alsa-lib
calculates the boundary value, too. The changed algorithm leads to
a different boundary value used by alsa-lib, which makes, e.g., mplayer
fail to play a 44.1 kHz file because the silence_size parameter is now
invalid; bug report:
<https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=5015>.

This patch reverts the change to the boundary calculation, and instead
fixes the hw_ptr_interrupt calculation to be period-aligned regardless
of the boundary value.
