McBSP2 in OMAP3 has 1 ksample (1k x 32 bit) internal FIFO. During
initial playback startup, this FIFO is keeping the DMA request active
until the FIFO is full.
So now if ALSA buffer size is smaller, DMA is looping around it while
filling up the HW FIFO, generating burst of interrupts as well and SW
doesn't have any change to fill enough data.
