It turned out that the recent Intel HD-audio controller chips show a significant stall during the system PM resume intermittently. It doesn't happen so often and usually it may read back successfully after one or more seconds, but in some rare worst cases the driver went into fallback mode. After trial-and-error, we found out that the communication stall seems covered by issuing the sync after each verb write, as already done for AMD and other chipsets. So this patch enables the write-sync flag for the recent Intel chips, Skylake and onward, as a workaround. Also, since Broxton and co have the very same driver flags as Skylake, refer to the Skylake driver flags instead of defining the same contents again for simplification.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
