Hi isaki@,

I'm currently making in kernel mixing optional depending on a sysctl variable 
to benefit slower/older platforms and as a default if audio auto config fails, 
it will work as audio did before in kernel mixing.

This commit was an intermediate works as I may have to inject audio into the 
mixring directly and as such it would be more usefull as a virtual channel.

If possible I will use the hardware ring directly in this case I will restore 
the record/play ringbuffers and reduce the memory consumption of this commit.

Best regards,

Nat
