Module Name:    src
Committed By:   nat
Date:           Tue May 15 00:28:00 UTC 2018

Modified Files:
        src/sys/dev: audio.c

Log Message:
Expose the audio_info structure of vchan zero(0) the mix ring to allow
setting the hardware gain and balance via audioctl(1) using the -p 0
switch.

It is not possible to influence the hardware gain/blance from the
audio_info structure of vchans 1 onwards.  It is now possible to return
the audio mixers audio format from the audio_info structure of vchan 0 to
ease applications configuring for mmapped play back.

This is conformant to the audio specification posted on tech-kern see:
        "NetBSD Audio Specification 2018"
or audio.7 manual page to be added in a follow up commit.
