Looking more into this, it seems the root cause for this failure is that request_module returned pre-maturely (and with 0 return value) when i915 probing was still not finished. I tracked this issue down to the following kmod bug, fixed meanwhile upstream: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/utils/kernel/kmod/kmod.git/commit/?id=fd44a98ae2eb5eb32161088954ab21e58e19dfc4 Updating to the latest kmod fixed the issue. Things will of course work only in the general case where both the i915 and the sound driver are built as modules, to support other configurations we'd need to move the audio probing to happen at component bind time. --Imre > > > thanks, > > Takashi > > -- 8< -- > From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> > Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: hda - Workaround for unbalanced i915 power > refcount by > concurrent probe > > The recent addition of on-demand i915 audio component binding in the > codec driver seems leading to the unbalanced i915 power refcount, > according to Intel CI tests.
