For HDMI support we anyways need HDMI code?

We only use a combined generic codec driver which just supports 'HDA'
codecs regardless of what type they are.
When things probed via ASoC/SOF I just could not find any other way to
access to this table inside of patch_hdmi.c.
We could sort of 'cheat' and look for a specific (I'm not sure if it is
Intel or HDA generic) mask: 0x4
It is used in Intel drivers to identify the display codec, so the HDMI/DP.
If the 0x4 is universal among all HDA platforms for HDMI/DP then I'm
more than happy to drop this patch, but I'm not sure about that.
