Fix two mistakes in the PCM interface section: 1/ Members of the snd_pcm_hardware structure are channels_{min,max} and not channel_{min,max} (mind the 's'). 2/ Another sentence is incomplete as the reference to one structure member (period_bytes_max) is missing. There is no relevant 'Fixes:' tag to apply as both typos predate the Git era.
