[pulseaudio-discuss] [PATCH v6 12/25] loopback: Implement underrun protection

Because the latency controller will try to adjust to the configured latency
regardless of underruns, an underrun protection has to be implemented which
will increase the target latency if too many underruns occur.
Underruns are tracked and if more than 3 underruns occur, the target latency
is increased in increments of 5 ms. One underrun per hour is accepted.
The protection ensures, that independent from the configured latency the
module will converge to a stable latency if the configured latency is too
small.
