ALSA: pcm: Introduce MSBITS subformat interface
Improve granularity of format selection for S32/U32 formats by adding constants representing 20, 24 and MAX most significant bits. The MAX means the maximum number of significant bits which can the physical format hold. For 32-bit formats, MAX is related to 32 bits. For 8-bit formats, MAX is related to 8 bits etc. As there is only one user currently (format S32_LE), subformat is represented by a simple u32 and stores flags only for that one user alone. The approach of subformat being part of struct snd_pcm_hardware is a compromise between ALSA and ASoC allowing for hw_params-intersection code to be alloc/free-less while not adding any new responsibilities to ASoC runtime structures.
