[PATCH 5.9 16/75] ALSA: hda/generic: Add option to enforce preferred_dacs pairs

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit 242d990c158d5b1dabd166516e21992baef5f26a upstream.

The generic parser accepts the preferred_dacs[] pairs as a hint for
assigning a DAC to each pin, but this hint doesn't work always
effectively.  Currently it's merely a secondary choice after the trial
with the path index failed.  This made sometimes it difficult to
assign DACs without mimicking the connection list and/or the badness
table.

This patch adds a new flag, obey_preferred_dacs, that changes the
behavior of the parser.  As its name stands, the parser obeys the
given preferred_dacs[] pairs by skipping the path index matching and
giving a high penalty if no DAC is assigned by the pairs.  This mode
will help for assigning the fixed DACs forcibly from the codec
driver.
