Yes.

Hmm. It was actually you who told me to use a tasklet and not to submit
urbs from the input urb completion callbacks, as we can run out of
queuable playback buffers otherwise. Now that I think about it again, I
agree that it could be done without a tasklet as well by just keeping
the returned ones in a list and handle them in one go whenever possible.

I'll try this when I spin the next version.


Thanks,
Daniel
