Hi Amadeusz/Pierre,

This seems like a miss. We should have returned the value of
hda_set_power_state() directly here.

And to address your point, Pierre. This is the platform-specific code, so
the use of hda_dsp_set_power_state() should be permitted no? Whereas, the
part that uses this function in ipc.c is not platform-specific.
Thanks,
Ranjani
