Thanks. FWIW, below is the fix patch doing both (setting the quirk
and disabling loopback). I'll queue this up.

Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: hda - Fix headset support and noise on HP EliteBook 755
G2
HP EliteBook 755 G2 with ALC3228 (ALC280) codec [103c:221c] requires
the known fixup (ALC269_FIXUP_HEADSET_MIC) for making the headset mic
working. Also, it suffers from the loopback noise problem, so we
should disable aamix path as well.
