Yeah, you are right. But I don't think we should return false from
hdmi_present().

Before dyn_pcm_assign support for non-acomp drivers:
1) pcm and pin plug detection were controlled by same jack object, and
2) change in plug status was reported from snd_hda_jack_report_sync().

If dyn_pcm_assign support is enabled for non-acomp drivers, then pcm
and pin detection are controlled by different jack object. Now, report
for plug status change of both jack object, requires to be in sync.
snd_hda_jack_report_sync() reports change in plug status of pin jack
object. I think after snd_hda_jack_report_sync() we should loop over
all pins, detect change in plug status, and report change in plug
status of pcm jack.

The jack report block, was added by commit 464837a7bc0a (ALSA: hda -
block HDMI jack reports while repolling), to avoid race condition
with repolling. That is not NVIDIA specific.

Yeah, this is simple to understand.

I am sending fresh patches, see if they make sense.
