    ALSA: hda - Abort the probe without i915 binding for HSW/BDW · 535115b5
    Takashi Iwai 提交于
    The previous patch tried to continue the probe if i915 binding fails.
    For for simplicity reason, we haven't implemented abort even for
    controller chips that are dedicated for HDMI/DP on HSW and BDW.
    However, Mengdong suggested that this can be dangerous; BIOS may
    disable gfx power well although the PCI entry for HD-audio is left,
    and this may result in the unexpected behavior, kernel errors, etc.
    
    For avoiding this situation, abort the probe at i915 binding failure
    only for HSW/BDW chips selectively.  For other chips, it still
    continues.
