when the allocator function (snd_malloc_xxx) is called from the driver. so, it wouldn't work exactly like snd-hammerfall-mem, which allocates by itself without call from the sound drivers. snd-page-alloc module just "caches" the buffer after the module unload/reload. but i don't think this would make so big difference, since the sound drivers are loaded likely in the early stage, anyway.
