As I already mentioned in another thread, if the user-space action has
to be cut off, we just need to call snd_card_disconnect() instead
without sync.  A quick hack would be like below (totally untested and
might be wrong, though).

In anyway, Ricardo, please stop spinning too frequently; v8 in a few 
days is way too much, and now the recipient list became unmanageable.
Let's give people some time to review and consider a better solution
at first.


thanks,

Takashi
