ALSA: hrtimer: handle delayed timer interrupts

commit b1d4f7f4bdcf9915c41ff8cfc4425c84dabb1fde upstream.

If a timer interrupt was delayed too much, hrtimer_forward_now() will
forward the timer expiry more than once.  When this happens, the
additional number of elapsed ALSA timer ticks must be passed to
snd_timer_interrupt() to prevent the ALSA timer from falling behind.

This mostly fixes MIDI slowdown problems on highly-loaded systems with
badly behaved interrupt handlers.
