In genernic speaking, there are two cases , a. audio client is the third 
client. b. audio client is not the third client.

if audio is third client. vga_switcheroo_ready() is true, 
vga_switcheroo_enable() can be called in audio client register fuction.
if audio is not the third client, vga_switcheroo_enable() will be called 
in the second GFX client register.
In vga_switcheroo_enable() , the first list loop will set two GPU 
clients' id, and the second list loop will select audio client, set id 
by its bound gpu pci dev.

OK, will do it in next v2.

Will update it in v2.

Before , we suppose  VGA_SWITCHEROO_UNKNOWN_ID can be only used for gpu 
client, and now we also use it on the audio client. if we set 
VGA_SWITCHEROO_UNKNOWN_ID to gpu clients, client_is_audio(client) will 
be true, since -1 in memory is presented as 0xffffffffffffffff(if it is 
64bit asic).
