ALSA: pcm: Handle special page mapping in the default mmap handler
When a driver needs to deal with a special buffer like a SG or a vmalloc buffer, it has to set up the PCM page ops explicitly for the corresponding helper function. This is rather error-prone and many people forgot or incorrectly used it. For simplifying the call patterns and avoiding such a potential bug, this patch enhances the PCM default mmap handler to check the (pre-)allocated buffer type and handles the page gracefully depending on the buffer type. If the PCM page ops is given, the ops is still used in a higher priority. The new code path is only for the default (NULL page ops) case.
