Thanks for the patch. But could you give a bit more context why this change is needed?
The COMBO method was recommended for Intel chipsets by a certain audio maintainer. ;) It was also tested on the most recent Intel chips because we were seeing warning messages when using DMA positioning ("Invalid position buffer, using LPIB read method instead.").
Could you resend the patch with such some reasonable comments in the changelog?
thanks,
Takashi
