Well it's more of sample_rate_change_notify() or something like that.
But I don't mind too much what it's called. We can go with your original
name if you feel it's more clear.

intel_audio_codec_enable/disable are called during the modeset. With my
idea as long as you're holding the lock and audio.enabled==true you
could be sure there's nothing bad happening at the same time in i915.

Could be a mutex I think.

The audio driver can change the sample rate at any point, at which point
it'll call into i915 to reconfigure n/cts, no? So we just need to make
sure things can't blow up if it does that while there's a modeset
happening at the same time.
