When CONFIG_SND_JACK is disabled, the hdmi driver tries to create
a new output jack structure and dereferences it even though
the pointer is never assigned:
sound/pci/hda/patch_hdmi.c: In function 'generic_hdmi_build_jack':
sound/pci/hda/patch_hdmi.c:2534:30: error: 'jack' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
sound/pci/hda/patch_hdmi.c:2526:19: note: 'jack' was declared here
This makes snd_jack_new() return an error when SND_JACK is disabled,
forcing all users to handle errors gracefully and avoiding the
problem in all callers that correctly check the return code.
