Well, "nofixup" matching is one good point.  But it doesn't mean that
it's better to put a style in your patch, but rather it means that
it's a generic problem even for the existing scheme.

For example, there is already a similar workaround in patch_sigmatel.c
for the old iMacs.  Since Apple doesn't give any useful PCI SSID, we
need to check codec SSIDs.  But even some machines give bogus codec
SSIDs (0000:0100) due to BIOS, so we have to filter out at first with
PCI SSID, then apply codec SSID check.

What can we do for fixing both cases (iMac and Dell)?  We can't put
every logic in a flat way into pick_fixup().  Both tells us:
- we need multi-step filtering
- some of filters can be reused (e.g. filtering via PCI vendor, some
  device SSID mask)
- some filter can be arbitrary (e.g. pincfg matching)

This implies that the need isn't to extend the current flat fixup
parser but redesign somehow to be layered.  Otherwise, we'll see the
same trouble once if we need to add another matching method (OF, ACPI,
DMI, whatever).

So, until this is properly implemented, I'd like not to touch the
the helper side, but keep changes inside the codec driver locally.


thanks,

Takashi
