[PATCH] ALSA: hda: Fix cached processing coefficient verbs

From: raoxu

From: Xu Rao <raoxu@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Intel HD Audio defines Coefficient Index and Processing Coefficient as
separate audio widget controls in the Audio Widget Verb Definitions:
Coefficient Index selects the coefficient slot, while Processing
Coefficient accesses the value at the selected slot.

hda_reg_read_coef() selects the slot with AC_VERB_SET_COEF_INDEX, but
then uses AC_VERB_GET_COEF_INDEX for the value read. That reads back the
selected index instead of the coefficient value. hda_reg_write_coef()
has the same issue and builds the value write from AC_VERB_GET_COEF_INDEX
instead of AC_VERB_SET_PROC_COEF.

This only affects the regmap coefficient cache path used by codecs that
set codec->cache_coef. Direct coefficient helpers already use the normal
SET_COEF_INDEX followed by GET_PROC_COEF or SET_PROC_COEF sequence, which
is likely why this has not been noticed widely.

Use AC_VERB_GET_PROC_COEF for cached coefficient reads and
AC_VERB_SET_PROC_COEF for cached coefficient writes.

Fixes: 40ba66a702b8 ("ALSA: hda - Add cache support for COEF read/write")
