From: Kai Vehmanen <kai.vehmanen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 2928fa0a97ebb9549cb877fdc99aed9b95438c3a ] The initial snd_hda_get_sub_node() can fail on certain devices (e.g. some Chromebook models using Intel GLK). The failure rate is very low, but as this is is part of the probe process, end-user impact is high. In observed cases, related hardware status registers have expected values, but the node query still fails. Retrying the node query does seem to help, so fix the problem by adding retry logic to the query. This does not impact non-Intel platforms.
