Subject: No more Intel HDA soundcard

The following commit results in soundcard detection failing with -EBUSY

commit 34c25350acfc792747e861d1e36874abf7e73255
Author: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@...e.de>

    ALSA: hda - Remove old codec-probe limitation
    
    Removed the old workaround to avoid the non-existing codec slot.
    The current code should work without that workaround.  If any,
    we can add a quirk table.

I fixed up this (and got sound back) but suspect the following is not right.
