Add new hw_params flag to explicitly tell driver that rewinds will never be used. This can be used by low-level driver to optimize DMA operations and reduce power consumption. Use this flag only when data written in ring buffer will never be invalidated, e.g. any update of appl_ptr is final.
Note that the update of appl_ptr include both a read/write data operation as well as snd_pcm_forward() whose behavior is not modified.

Well, I'm still not convinced with this flag.
First off, does it really need to be per PCM stream? The introducing something to hw_parms implies that it varies per application. But I can't imagine that a system requires different behavior per stream regarding such a thing.
Second, the driver can implement a check in PCM ack callback to prevent the rewind, too. Then there is no need to touch the PCM core.
thanks,
Takashi
