Hi,

With the commit 1ba8f9d30817 ("ALSA: hda: Add a power_save blacklist"), we changed the default value of power_save option to -1 for processing the power-save blacklist. Unfortunately, this seems breaking user-space applications that actually read the power_save parameter value via sysfs and judge / adjust the power-saving status. They see the value -1 as if the power-save is turned off, although the actual value is taken from CONFIG_SND_HDA_POWER_SAVE_DEFAULT and it can be a positive.
So, overall, passing -1 there was no good idea. Let's partially revert it -- at least for power_save option default value is restored again to CONFIG_SND_HDA_POWER_SAVE_DEFAULT. Meanwhile, in this patch, we keep the blacklist behavior and make is adjustable via the new option, pm_blacklist.

Thank you for taking care of this and not just reverting my patch.
Your fix looks good to me:
