-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. --------------------- From: Takashi Iwai Probing the codec slots on ATI controller causes problems on some devices like Acer laptops. On these devices, reading from codec slot 3 results in the communication failure with the codec chip. Meanwhile, some laptops (e.g. Gateway) have the codec connection only on slot 3, and probing this slot is mandatory for them. The patch improves the probing robustness. The additional slots are now checked only when no codecs are found in the primary three slots.
