IMO, Hui's fix is correct in this case; otherwise it'll result in
endless number of allocations at each time the runtime resume is
performed.  So I'm going to take it as is.

For ca0132, though, the simplest fix would be to just move
ca0132_init_unsol() call into patch_ca0132().  But the additional fix
in hda_jack side would be good in anyway.


thanks,
