Yeah, I understand it. But, as mentioned, changing this to *all*
controller chips is dangerous.
We have already a quirk for controller chips to set max codecs depending
on the chip model. Right now, only teradici chip sets to 1.

So, add "#define AZX_DEFAULT_CODECS 4", and use this value unless
azx_max_codecs[] is defined. And, for the new controller chip
supporting more than 4, it can has 8 in azx_max_codecs[].

Is it feasible?

In sound/pci/hda/Makefile, hda_eld.c is built into snd-hda-codec-intelhdmi
by the following rule:

snd-hda-codec-intelhdmi-objs := patch_intelhdmi.o hda_eld.o

Since now hda_eld.c is used in two modules, this has to be in the common
place, such as snd-hda-codec. For this, uncomment the line:

# snd-hda-codec-$(CONFIG_SND_HDA_ELD) += hda_eld.o

and remove hda_eld.o from snd-hda-codec-intelhdmi-objs line.

For Kconfig, right now we have the definition

config SND_HDA_ELD
def_bool y
depends on SND_HDA_CODEC_INTELHDMI

Change depends on like

depends on SND_HDA_CODEC_INTELHDMI || SND_HDA_CODEC_NVHDMI

This can be done via "select" instead. But, we'd merge all hdmi codes
later, so which way to choose is no big matter.


thanks,

Takashi
