Some newer chips have more than one HDMI output, but usually not
Please point out the model name here (where this patch actually makes a difference)?
all of them are exposed as physical jacks. Removing the unused PCM devices (as indicated by BIOS in the pin config default) will reduce user confusion as they currently have to choose between several HDMI devices, some of them not working anyway.

Can test this instead:
if (hda_node_index(spec->pin_cvt, nid) < 0) {
snd_printdd("HDMI: Skipping node %d (no connection)\n", nid);return -EINVAL;
The above return actually will hide the device for cvt 3:
+---- pin 4 / cvt 2 ------ pin 5 \ +---- pin 6
cvt 3
Which is the default connection for Intel ibexpeak/sandybridge codecs. It might be a problem when the user uses dual displays (which may be configured at runtime). I have no such a setup, so cannot assure things will work or not work..
