The interrupt handler of intel8x0 calls snd_intel8x0_update() whenever
the hardware sets the corresponding status bit for each stream.  This
works fine for most cases as long as the hardware behaves properly.
But when the hardware gives a wrong bit set, this leads to a zero-
division Oops, and reportedly, this seems what happened on a VM.

For fixing the crash, this patch adds a internal flag indicating that
the stream is ready to be updated, and check it (as well as the flag
being in suspended) to ignore such spurious update.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
