Hm, a good question. Basically the PCM buffer size itself shouldn't be influenced by that (i.e. no hw-constraint or such is needed), but the padding should be cleared indeed. I somehow left those to the allocator side, but maybe it's safer to clear the whole buffer in sound/core/memalloc.c commonly. thanks, Takashi
