In a series of recent work, ALSA PCM core got some arrangements to handle
application-side position on PCM buffer. However, relevant codes still
disperse to two translation units

This commit unifies these codes into a helper function.

At present, trace events are probed even if corresponding parameter is
not actually changed. This is inconvenient.

This commit improves the behaviour.

When refining mask/interval parameters, helper functions can return error
code. This error is not handled immediately. This seems to return
parameters to userspace applications in its meddle of processing.

However, in general, when receiving error from system calls, the
application might not handle argument buffer. It's reasonable to
judge the above design as superfluity.

This commit handles the error immediately.

Results of ioctl(2) with SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_REFINE and
SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_PARAMS are different, because the latter has single
value for several parameters; e.g. channels of PCM substream. Selection
of the single value is done independently of application of constraints.
It's helpful for developers to trace the selection process.

This commit adds tracepoints to snd_pcm_hw_params_choose() for the
purpose.

As of v4.12, snd_pcm_hw_params_choose() is just called in a process
context of ioctl(2) with SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_HW_PARAMS. The function locates
in a different file, which has no tracepoints.

This commit moves the function to a file with the tracepoints for later
commit.

When drivers register no flags about information of PCM hardware, ALSA
PCM core fixups it roughly. Currently, this operation places in a
function snd_pcm_hw_refine(). It can be moved to a function
fixup_unreferenced_params() because it doesn't affects operations
between these two functions.

This idea is better to bundle codes with similar purposes and this commit
achieves it.
