Thanks for the patch.  However, the patch isn't cleanly applicable as
your mailer seems breaking spaces.  Please try to fix the mailer setup
(at best use git-send-email) or use attachment as the last resort.

About the code change:

Passing the fixed size array as an argument is hard to read and
error-prone.  Better to define a struct instead?

This loop looks unreliable.  Usually this kind of loop should have
some delay and/or timeout as the break out condition.

(snip)

Such a bulk of data is usually put into another file, and included
from patch_realtek.c.  Otherwise the code becomes too clumsy.
See sound/pci/hda/*_helper.c files as examples.

Also, we prefer the lower alphabet for hex numbers.

> +    ///// First set of fixups

Too many slashes.  Just use '//'.

Last but not least, try to fix coding-style issues reported by
scripts/checkpatch.pl.


thanks,
