As you noticed, it will leave the device bound with driver, i.e. this
looks as if it were operative. It means that the sound driver is
still responsible for suspend/resume or whatever action even though
it's totally useless. In that sense, it makes more sense to give it
away at the early stage before actually binding it, and the deny list
is exactly for that.
Apart from that, the suggested change itself can be applied
independently from the deny list update, too. It'd be good for other
similar devices, too.
Though, a slight concern is the sequence of runtime PM you applied in
the patch. Is it a standard idiom to perform pm_runtime_disable(),
set_suspended() and enable()? Also, azx_free() is the common
destructor, hence it's called also at the regular driver unbinding.
I'm not entirely sure whether it's OK to call there also at
unbinding.
