[alsa-devel] [PATCH 2/2] ALSA: hda - add sanity check to force the separate stream tags

It seems that newer Intel chipsets have more than 15 I/O streams (total).
This patch forces the separate stream tags, when this hardware is detected
to avoid SDxCTL.STRM field overflow and an unexpected behaviour.
