From: Pierre-Louis Bossart <pierre-louis.bossart@linux.intel.com>

Add new hw_params flag to explicitly tell driver that rewinds will never
be used. This can be used by low-level driver to optimize DMA operations
and reduce power consumption. Use this flag only when data written in
ring buffer will never be invalidated, e.g. any update of appl_ptr is
final.

Note that the update of appl_ptr include both a read/write data
operation as well as snd_pcm_forward() whose behavior is not modified.
