If the host system sends to many packets to the DTE to process, the on-card
memory can be exhausted which will result in an out of memory alert. In commit
2ac2338247, the driver will halt all communication
with the card and request a reload if any alert is received.
Now the driver will silently drop any "burst" traffic that was sent to the
transcoder as opposed to expecting the firmware to do it. There is currently a
limit of 640 samples (80ms of audio) in flight to the firmware at any one time
allowed.

This helps to keep the tx descriptor ring at max capacity when the system is

When switching to polling mode it was possible that we would mask off the
receive complete interrupt until the next timer fired. Now go ahead and handle
anything we know how to handle regardless of the current mask.
Also, no need to update the reg local anymore since it isn't used to ack any
interrupts. We now always ack all the interrupts first and inspect them all.

This patch does a couple of things. It adds a new DEBUG mode where packet
statistics are printed when channels are closed which can be used to track where
packets might be lost in the transcoding chain.
This patch will also print to the kernel log if the AN983 has detected any
errored received packets. Problems of this type are typically system problems,
like when the card is having trouble DMAing packets.

Even if it is duplicated or we don't have an outbound message waiting, we should
ack it so that the firmware does not keep trying to send it to the host.
Otherwise the firmware could get into situations where it was constantly
retrying to send packets for which it did not receive our previous ACK and
exhaust memory.
I was only seeing this on platforms were packets were going missing in the
stream, increasing the probability that the driver would miss early responses.

When an unsolicited alert is received, we'll flag the card as halted so that
commands will not be retried. This is because often times the firmware will no
longer process any commands in this state and the driver will hold processes in
the dstate while waiting to retry the commands.
