[PATCH] ALSA: seq: virmidi: Add a drain operation

[Stefan Sauer]

If a driver does not supply a drain operation for outputs, a default code
path will execute msleep(50). Especially for a virtual midi device
this severely limmits the throughput.

This implementation for the virtual midi driver simply flushes the output
workqueue.
