C-Media devices (at least some models) mute the playback stream when volumes are set to the minimum value. But this isn't informed via TLV and the user-space, typically PulseAudio, gets confused as if it's still played in a low volume.

This patch adds the new flag, min_mute, to struct usb_mixer_elem_info for indicating that the mixer element is with the minimum-mute volume. This flag is set for known C-Media devices in snd_usb_mixer_fu_apply_quirk() in turn.
