LSI Modem always checks the “opened” bit of “azx_dev” before opening the stream. Modem sets “opened” bit and use stream if and only if that “opened” bit was not set otherwise move to next stream “azx_dev”.
I found that the ALSA unset this "opened" bit on close but do not reset AC_VERB_SET_CHANNEL_STREAMID of IDC codec.
Due to which IDC Codec always get active and always sending data to stream 0. Now when LSI modem check the "opened"
bit of stream 0, it found it is not set and open the stream 0 and start reading data from stream 0. As IDC codec still sending data on stream 0 the LSI Modem get this unexpected data and stop working.
I believe the Code (below) which checks "no_sticky_stream" is the culprit due to which "really_cleanup_stream"
function is not called. I found the Analog devices codec set "no_sticky_stream" while probing their codec.
This is the reason, our modem works on HP laptop with Analog device codec.
According to me the IDC codec should stop sending data after closing the stream or otherwise they should always acquire the stream which is not right.
I don’t know why "no_sticky_stream" come into new code and what’s it significance. Why only Analog devices use this "no_sticky_stream".

Stream 0 was acquired by IDC 7605 and this codec keep sending something
even after closing the stream.
Why does the LSI modem device receive from the stream of IDT codec at all? In other words, how does LSI modem driver manage the allocation of streams?
