Comment:
ALSA client code that assumes that mmap access is always available is
broken. The applications needs to be fixed because it makes false
assumptions about the drivers. mmap is not available on PA as alsa
backend, on many hw sound drivers as well as jack backends, bluetooth or
firewire. If the application assumes it is available it is thus not
compatible with any of these.
