Doesn't that risk introducing many regressions? What would be the problem if we switch to the generic HDA driver for *new* boards and leave the old working quicks/models untouched?
For me, it's the other way around. Whenever we try to improve the generic behaviour of the codec driver, e g by adding configurable auto-mute, jack detection notification etc, these old models get left behind because the new stuff depends on information we get out of the autoparser(s).
By removing the model quirks, these machines can benefit from the new functionality as well.
Yeah that's a good point of view! I cannot agree it any more.
Thanks, Fengguang
