The function generic_get_buffer_in currently ignores the *size
parameter and may return a buffer larger than *size.

As a result the variable samples in function
audio_pcm_hw_run_in may underflow. The while loop then most
likely will never termiate.

This bug was reported at http://bugs.debian.org/948658.
