[alsa-devel] [PATCH 05/31] media: Media Controller fix to not let stream_count go negative

Add a range check to not let the stream_count become negative.
Wthout this check, calls to stop pipeline when there is no active
pipeline will result in stream_count < 0 condition and lock and
preventing link state (activate/deactivate) changes. This will
happen from error leg in start pipeline interface.
