So this codec was detected properly.  Judging from your patch
description, the verb triggering the stall (0x170500) was about the
power up to D0 for AFG node.  Did the sound work even after the flood
of the messages?

The problem might be also not a stall but a bogus CORB/RIRB pointer.
Try the first patch, and give the first "spurious response" message.
Now it shows rp and wp values, and we might see a pattern in them to
trigger the spurious message (e.g. wp is always same value).

Also, to be sure, try the second patch, too.  It disables the access
to some vendor-specific verbs.
