ALSA: emu8000: fix emu8000 DRAM sized 512 KiB too small 

v2:  Fixed result still wrong in the case of 512 KiB DRAM.  Oops.

Applicable to 3.5.3 mainline.

In emu8000.c, size_dram determines the amount of memory on the sound card by
doing write/readback tests starting at 512 KiB and incrementing by 512 KiB.
On success, detected_size is updated to the successful address and testing
continues.  On failure, the loop is immediately exited.  The resulting
detected_size is 512 KiB too small except in two special cases:

1. If there is no memory, the initial 0 value of detected_size is used, which
   is correct.
2. If the address space wraps around, detected_size is updated before the
   bailout, so the result is correct.

The patch corrects all cases and was tested with an AWE64 Gold.  Before:
  EMU8000 [0x620]: 3584 Kb on-board memory detected
  asfxload 4GMGSMT.SF2 (4174814 B) fails.
After:
  EMU8000 [0x620]: 4096 Kb on-board memory detected
  asfxload 4GMGSMT.SF2 succeeds.

I do not have a card with 512 KiB to test with, but by forcibly enabling the
added conditional I verified on the AWE64 Gold that it detects 512 KiB
(successfully reading from the first memory location) and does not hang the
card.
