Direct-complete works fine on HDA controller but so far not so on HDA codec.
I think the main reason is that the codec doesn't have the middle
layer to handle the detail, while HDA controller has PCI bus to deal
with them.

Yes. I'll find a better approach to address this.

Maybe we can revert the most of the commit, and just leave
hda_codec_pm_complete(), which is the most relevant part of the patch.
Let me test a bit and send a new patch. Let me know if you don't like
this approach.
A question a bit unrelated to the discussion - how does
snd_hdac_power_up_pm() work for concurrent resume?
It can work for recursive call, but what if there are concurrent
resume request, but pm_runtime_get_sync() is still running?
The second call may access the codec which hasn't completed resume.
