The indirect-PCM helper codes have an implicit assumption that the
appl_ptr always increases. But the PCM core may deal with the
decrement of appl_ptr via rewind ioctls, and it may screw up the
buffer pointer management.
This patch adds the negative appl_ptr diff in transfer functions and
let returning an error instead of always accepting the appl_ptr
updates. The callers are usually PCM ack callbacks, and they pass the
error to the upper layer accordingly.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
