The loop in snd_hdac_bus_parse_capabilities() may go to nirvana when
it hits an invalid register value read:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffad5dc41f3fff
IP: pci_azx_readl+0x5/0x10 [snd_hda_intel]
Call Trace:
snd_hdac_bus_parse_capabilities+0x3c/0x1f0 [snd_hda_core]
azx_probe_continue+0x7d5/0x940 [snd_hda_intel]
.....
This happened on a new Intel machine, and we need to check the value
and abort the loop accordingly.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
