Good to hear. Below is the revised version, so that the behavior can
be controlled via use_vmalloc option for snd-usb-audio module.
Could you check whether this still works?

Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: usb-audio: Allow non-vmalloc buffer for PCM buffers
The current USB-audio driver allocates the PCM buffer via vmalloc(),
as this serves merely as an intermediate buffer that is copied to each
URB transfer buffer. This works well in general on x86, but on some
archs this may result in cache coherency issues when mmap is used.
OTOH, it works also on such arch unless mmap is used.
This patch is a step for mitigating the inconvenience; a new module
option "use_vmalloc" is provided so that user can choose to allocate
the DMA coherent buffer instead of the existing vmalloc buffer.
It's a global option and not dynamically switchable since the buffer
is pre-allocated at the probe time, and it'll become tricky to switch
in runtime.
As default use_vmalloc is true, so that the old behavior is kept.
For allowing the coherent mmap on ARM or MIPS, you can pass
use_vmalloc=0 option.
