+Subject: [PATCH] pcm: log a recovered xrun at debug priority
+
+snd_pcm_recover() prepares the stream and returns success, so the xrun
+is handled rather than fatal.  Reporting it at error priority floods the
+journal on handhelds and cannot be filtered: snd_lib_log_filter() raises
+any level below SND_LOG_ERROR back up to it.  At debug priority the
+message is off by default and still reachable with LIBASOUND_DEBUG.
