Typically, the target devices have internal buffer to adjust output of
received MIDI messages for MIDI serial bus, while the capacity of the
buffer is limited. IEEE 1394 transactions can transfer more MIDI messages
than MIDI serial bus can. This can cause buffer over flow in device side.
This commit adds throttle to limit MIDI data rate by counting intervals
between two MIDI messages. Usual MIDI messages consists of two or three
bytes. This requires 1.302 to 1.953 mili-seconds interval between these
messages. This commit uses kernel monotonic time service to calculate the
time of next transaction.
