We fixed the potential deadlock at dynamic unbinding the HD-audio
codec at the commit 7206998f578d ("ALSA: hda: Fix potential deadlock
at codec unbinding"), but ironically, this caused another potential
deadlock. The current code uses refcount_dec() and waits for the
pending task with wait_event for dropping the refcount to 0. This
works fine when PCMs are assigned and actually waiting for the
refcount drop.
Meanwhile, when there was no PCM assigned, the refcount_dec() call
itself was supposed to drop to zero -- alas, it doesn't in reality;
refcount_dec() complains, spews kernel warning and it saturates
instead of dropping to 0, due to the nature of refcount_dec()
implementation. This eventually blocks the wait_event() wakeup and
the code get stuck there.
For avoiding the problem, we call refcount_dec_and_test() and skips
the sync-wait if it already reaches to zero.
The patch does a slight code reshuffling to make sure to invoke other
disconnect calls before the sync-wait, too.
