Subject: [PATCH][next] ALSA: 6fire: Fix undefined behavior bug in struct midi_runtime

`struct urb` is a flexible structure, which means that it contains a
flexible-array member at the bottom. This could potentially lead to an
overwrite of the objects following `out_urb` in `struct midi_runtime`,
among them a function pointer.

Fix this by placing the declaration of object `out_urb` at the end of
`struct midi_runtime`.

The same question as your another 6fire patch is applied here: does it
"fix" anything real?


thanks,
