Subject: [PATCH v2] ALSA: hda: optimize the probe codec process

From: songxiebing <songxiebing@...inos.cn>

In azx_probe_codecs function, when bus->codec_mask is becomes to 0(no codecs),
execute azx_init_chip, bus->codec_mask will be initialized to a value again,
this causes snd_hda_codec_new function to run, the process is as follows:
-->snd_hda_codec_new
-->snd_hda_codec_device_init
-->snd_hdac_device_init---snd_hdac_read_parm(...AC_PAR_VENDOR_ID) 2s
		       ---snd_hdac_read_parm(...AC_PAR_VENDOR_ID) 2s
		       ---snd_hdac_read_parm(...AC_PAR_SUBSYSTEM_ID) 2s
		       ---snd_hdac_read_parm(...AC_PAR_REV_ID) 2s
		       ---snd_hdac_read_parm(...AC_PAR_NODE_COUNT) 2s
when no codecs, read communication is error, each command will be polled for
2 second, a total of 10s, it is easy to some problem.
like this:
  2 [   14.833404][ 6] [  T164] hda 0006:00: Codec #0 probe error; disabling it...
  3 [   14.844178][ 6] [  T164] hda 0006:00: codec_mask = 0x1
  4 [   14.880532][ 6] [  T164] hda 0006:00: too slow response, last cmd=0x0f0000
  5 [   15.891988][ 6] [  T164] hda 0006:00: too slow response, last cmd=0x0f0000
  6 [   16.978090][ 6] [  T164] hda 0006:00: too slow response, last cmd=0x0f0001
  7 [   18.140895][ 6] [  T164] hda 0006:00: too slow response, last cmd=0x0f0002
  8 [   19.135516][ 6] [  T164] hda 0006:00: too slow response, last cmd=0x0f0004
 10 [   19.900086][ 6] [  T164] hda 0006:00: no codecs initialized
 11 [   45.573398][ 2] [    C2] watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#2 stuck for 22s! [kworker/2:0:25]

Here, when bus->codec_mask is 0, use a direct break to avoid execute snd_hda_codec_new function.
