Subject: [PATCH 4.4 031/163] ALSA: hda - Keep powering up ADCs on Cirrus codecs

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@...e.de>

commit de3df8a986b635082a1d94bae2c361d043c57106 upstream.

Although one weird behavior about the input path (inconsistent D0/D3
switch) on Cirrus CS420x codecs was fixed in the previous commit,
there is still an issue on some Mac machines: the capture stream
stalls when switching the ADCs on the fly.  More badly, this keeps
stuck until the next reboot.

The dynamic ADC switching is already a bit fragile and assuming
optimistically that the chip accepts the frequent power changes.  On
Cirrus codecs, this doesn't seem applicable.

As a quick workaround, we pin down the ADCs to keep up in D0 when
spec->dyn_adc_switch is set.  In this way, the ADCs are kept up only
for the system that were confirmed to be broken.
