CMI8888 shows the stuttering playback when the snooping is disabled on the audio buffer. Meanwhile, we've got reports that CORB/RIRB doesn't work in the snooped mode. So, as a compromise, disable the snoop only for CORB/RIRB and enable the snoop for the stream buffers.

The resultant patch became a bit ugly, unfortunately, but we still can live with it.
