Thanks for clarification on the internal logic, Takashi.
I will modify the patch and do some test tormorrow when I'm at office.

It will not harm the basic audio playback function. In case audio controller is in runtime suspend mode,
Jack detection may not be detected, but when user start to play audio, It will wake up system and
Jack event will be updated then. So user will not hear sound from speaker in such case.

The exception is user space did not get real-time jack event, it will confuse user.

Thanks
