Thanks for the patch. But this can't be taken as is due to the design
problem. Namely...

... here you cast the hdac_bus object to its child class. This is
disallowed, as it's a layer violation and would break if another child
class like ASoC driver is used with this patch.
IOW, inside the code in sound/hda/*, you must not use the contents in
sound/pci/hda/* and include/sound/hda_codec.h.
If any new workaround is needed, introduce a new flag in struct
hdac_bus.
thanks,
