This does seem a little bit odd indeed. I've picked the backport provided by Stephen, which has been queued for the 3.10 and 3.12 stable kernels as well. The original patch actually modifies the ops field in the hdmi_spec struct, however this field doesn't exist in this kernel version. Stephen, could you please comment? Since this is just a partial backport of 611885bc963a ("ALSA: hda - hdmi: Disallow unsupported 2ch remapping on NVIDIA codecs"), I'm assuming this is correct -- although the spec variable could have been dropped.
