The current PCM code doesn't initialize explicitly the buffers allocated for PCM streams, hence it might leak some uninitialized kernel data by mmapping or reading the buffer before actually reading or writing.
Since this is a common problem, let's initialize the data on the buffers each hw_params properly. For that, an existing helper function is exposed as snd_pcm_fill_silence_frames() and call it from snd_pcm_hw_params().

On the second thought, this use of fill_silence ops might have some side-effect on the drivers that do actually transfer stream data by that ops. So I dropped this patch again.
Will submit the revised patch later. Sorry for the trouble.
