[alsa-devel] [patch] ALSA: seq_midi_emul: small array underflow

In snd_opl3_calc_pitch() then the limit is:

	if (pitchbend > 0x1FFF)
		pitchbend = 0x1FFF;

But it can underflow meaning that segment can be as low as
SHORT_MIN / 0x1000 and we can read 6 elements before the start of the
opl3_note_table[] array.
