Once you start streaming audio to attached displays, user space opens the codec device and this causes the HDA controller to runtime resume. If the discrete GPU is suspended at that moment, it will be powered on and kept powered on as long as user space is streaming audio. Do you need to runtime resume the HDA controller even if user space isn't streaming audio? Why, and in which situation exactly? You're saying above that the HDA controller isn't runtime resumed on hotplug of a display. Is that necessary to retrieve ELD or something? I'm not sure if there's code in the HDA driver to acquire a runtime PM ref on HPD, but maybe it's necessary. Or maybe the code is there but somehow no HPD interrupt is received by the HDA driver?
