RFC PATCH 1/1 Fix audio with USB 3.0

The PCM audio hardware is not properly described. This causes the driver to use a period shorter than it should be, causing problems with USB 3.0.

This is a first attempt to fix it.

PS.:

1) This patch is not to be applied. It contains an ugly debug added for testing purposes, and uses a C99 comment;

2) em28xx can accept other sample rates. It would be good to add support for those other rates, as some audio playback hardware may not support 48KHz (I have one such hardware here).
