From: Ranjani Sridharan <ranjani.sridharan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> In the BE hw_params configuration, the existing code checks if any of the existing FEs are prepared, running, paused or suspended - and skips the configuration in those cases. This allows multiple calls of hw_params which the ALSA state machine supports. This check is not handled for the prepare stage, which can lead to the same BE being prepared multiple times. This patch adds a check similar to that of the hw_params, with the main difference being that the suspended state is allowed: the ALSA state machine allows a transition from suspended to prepared with hw_params skipped. This problem was detected on Intel IPC4/SoundWire devices, where the BE dailink .prepare stage is used to configure the SoundWire stream with a bank switch. Multiple .prepare calls lead to conflicts with the .trigger operation with IPC4 configurations. This problem was not detected earlier on Intel devices, HDaudio BE dailinks detect that the link is already prepared and skip the configuration, and for IPC3 devices there is no BE trigger.

Makes sense, I lightly tested it myself with multi FE configuration and then asked validation to run a round of tests with multiple FE topology and everything seems to work, so
