[PATCH/RFC 1/2] ALSA: fireface: Fix integer overflow in transmit_midi_msg()

As snd_ff.rx_bytes[] is unsigned int, and NSEC_PER_SEC is 1000000000L,
the second multiplication in
ff->rx_bytes[port] * 8 * NSEC_PER_SEC / 31250
always overflows on 32-bit platforms, truncating the result. Fix this
by precalculating "NSEC_PER_SEC / 31250", which is an integer constant.
Note that this assumes ff->rx_bytes[port] <= 16777.

Compile-tested only.
I don't know the maximum transfer length of MIDI, but given it's an old
standard, I guess it's rather small. If it is larger than 16777, the
constant "8" should be replaced by "8ULL", to force 64-bit arithmetic.
