The check of video_firmware_drivers_only() may help a bit, but I
believe we still need an option to override the behavior, from the
same reason as why i915.modeset option behaves so.  In general,
nomodeset is for a debugging purpose, and without an option, you'll
have no way to re-enable the HD-audio even if you could reload the
graphics driver.
