ALSA: hda - Ignore small negative LPIB delay correction

Sometimes the hardware reports LPIB being advanced than POSBUF.
When this happens, the driver adjusts to a positive value by adding
the buffer size.  Then the driver detects it as an error (greater than
the period size), and stops the LPIB delay account from this point
on.

When I took a close look at these conditions, the values shown are all
very small numbers, and it'd be better to just ignore these values
instead of discontinuing the LPIB delay correction.

In this patch, the driver checks a negative delay value and ignores if
it's a significantly small error.  Currently the threshold is set to
64 frames, but could be smaller.
