[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ALSA: x86: Select CONFIG_HDMI_LPE_AUDIO as default

[Ian W MORRISON]

The upstream kernel builds for distributions such as Ubuntu which now
includes binary packages for v4.11 mainline kernel release candidates are
promoted as a way of testing upstream kernels to to confirm that upstream
has fixed a specific issue (see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds).

Unfortunately the long awaited patch for providing HDMI audio support for
Bay Trail and Cherry Trail devices does not include this support through a
module built by default.

By defining the default of the two associated CONFIG settings (SND_X86 and
HDMI_LPE_AUDIO) as a module, upstream kernel builds would automatically
provide the much desired HDMI audio support by default.

This patch uses a Kconfig 'default' statement to include the driver as
default.
