intel_dig_port is *not* the same object in these 2 places. During
plugin, see:

[  146.934091] in intel_audio_codec_enable: intel_dig_port is
ffff8800a1f54000
[  146.934121] in i915_audio_component_get_eld: intel_dig_port is
ffff880244f7d000

sorry for the slow responses. I'll try to go back that direction unless
again someone comes up with other suggestions.
