This patchset is an alternative solution to problems reported by Ricardo Ribalda <ribalda@xxxxxxxxxxxx> and Zhen Ni <nizhen@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>, as discussed in - "[PATCH] ALSA: core: Fix deadlock when shutdown a frozen userspace" https://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2022-November/209248.html - "[PATCH] ASoc: SOF: Fix sof-audio-pci-intel-tgl shutdown timeout during hibernation" https://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2022-December/209685.html It was raised by Oliver Neukum <oneukum@xxxxxxxx> that kernel should not let user-space stall the shutdown process in any scenario and the unregister call in current SOF shutdown code is not right. This series reverts the ASoC SOF patch to unregister clients and the machine drivers at shutdown. To avoid bringing back old bugs, the series includes a patch to fix S5 entry on certain Intel platforms.
