ALSA: pcm - Add logging of hwptr updates and interrupt updates
Added the logging functionality to xrun_debug to record the hwptr updates via snd_pcm_update_hw_ptr() and snd_pcm_update_hwptr_interrupt(), corresponding to 16 and 8, respectively. For example, # echo 9 > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/xrun_debug will record the position and other parameters at each period interrupt together with the normal XRUN debugging.
