Ivan Orlov 1604f51b40 ALSA: docs: Extend module parameters description
Common ALSA module parameters look a little bit confusing because of the
description lacking, and it took me a while to understand the purpose of
their existence. To figure it out I asked the question about them to the
"alsa-devel" mailing list, and Takashi Iwai answered me with the text I
appended to the ALSA documentation in this patch.

These common module parameters aren't used a lot nowadays, but as I
understand they are important for providing compatibility with some
existing user-space apps. So in my opinion it is a good idea to document
why we need them.
