Takashi Sakamoto a2064710ba ALSA: firewire-lib: add buffer-over-run protection at receiving more data blocks than expected
In IEC 61883-6, the number of data blocks in a packet is limited up to
the value of SYT_INTERVAL. Current implementation is compliant to the
limitation, while it can cause buffer-over-run when the value of dbs
field in received packet is illegally large.

This commit adds a validator to detect such illegal packets to prevent
the buffer-over-run. Actually, the buffer is aligned to the size of memory
 page, thus this issue hardly causes system errors due to the room to page
alignment, as long as a few packets includes such jumbo payload; i.e.
a packet to several received packets.

Here, Behringer F-Control Audio 202 (based on OXFW 960) has a quirk to
postpone transferring isochronous packet till finish handling any
asynchronous packets. In this case, this model is lazy, transfers no
packets according to several cycle-start packets. After finishing, this
model pushes required data in next isochronous packet. As a result, the
packet include more data blocks than IEC 61883-6 defines.

To continue to support this model, this commit adds a new flag to extend
the length of calculated payload. This flag allows the size of payload
5 times as large as IEC 61883-6 defines. As a result, packets from this
model passed the validator successfully.
