Ok, I can confirm on my test system that the HDA-GCAP and HDA-SCH
patches are ok. I tested them on 1.0.15 with an AD1986a and they work
fine. Same system with HG20080130 is aweful. I'm trying to revert the
patch_analog patches one at a time to see which one is the problem.

No need to worry about this bit I guess. It may only be relevant on a
system that runs 64bit OSes, and I'd assume that bit doesn't exist for
systems that can't.
