It's a local function, let's make it static.

There are a bunch of lines calculating the buffer size in bytes at
each time. Keep the value in subs->buffer_bytes and use it
consistently for the code simplicity.

The PCM delay accounting in USB-audio driver is a bit complex to
follow, and this is an attempt to improve the readability and provide
some potential fix.
Basically, the PCM position delay is calculated from two factors: the
in-flight data on URBs and the USB frame counter. For the playback
stream, we advance the hwptr already at submitting URBs. Those
"in-flight" data amount is now tracked, and this is used as the base
value for the PCM delay correction. The in-flight data is decreased
again at URB completion in return. For the capture stream, OTOH,
there is no in-flight data, hence the delay base is zero.
The USB frame counter is used in addition for correcting the current
position. The reference frame counter is updated at each submission
and receiving time, and the difference from the current counter value
is taken into account.
In this patch, each in-flight data bytes is recorded in the new
snd_usb_ctx.queued field, and the total in-flight amount is tracked in
snd_usb_substream.inflight_bytes field, as the replacement of
last_delay field.
Note that updating the hwptr after URB completion doesn't work for
PulseAudio who tries to scratch the buffer on the fly; USB-audio is
basically a double-buffer implementation, hence the scratching the
buffer can't work for the already submitted data. So we always update
hwptr beforehand. It's not ideal, but the delay account should give
enough correctness.

Just minor code refactoring. Like DOP DSD code, it can be better in a
separate function for code readability.

USB-audio driver behaves a bit strangely for the playback stream --
namely, it starts sending silent packets at PCM prepare state while
the actual data is submitted at first when the trigger START is kicked
off. This is a workaround for the behavior where URBs are processed
too quickly at the beginning. That is, if we start submitting URBs at
trigger START, the first few URBs will be immediately completed, and
this would result in the immediate period-elapsed calls right after
the start, which may confuse applications.
OTOH, submitting the data after silent URBs would, of course, result
in a certain delay of the actual data processing, and this is rather
more serious problem on modern systems, in practice.
This patch tries to revert the workaround and lets the URB submission
starting at PCM trigger for the playback again. As far as I've tested
with various backends (native ALSA, PA, JACK, PW), I haven't seen any
problems (famous last words :)
Note that the capture stream handling needs no such workaround, since
the capture is driven per received URB.
