commit a8d7bde23e7130686b76624b099f3e22dd38aef7 upstream. We've observed too long probe time with Coffee Lake (CFL) machines, and the likely cause is some communication problem between the HD-audio controller and the codec chips. While the controller expects an IRQ wakeup for each codec response, it seems sometimes missing, and it takes one second for the controller driver to time out and read the response in the polling mode. Although we aren't sure about the real culprit yet, in this patch, we put a workaround by forcing the polling mode as default for CFL machines; the polling mode itself isn't too heavy, and much better than other workarounds initially suggested (e.g. disabling power-save), at least.

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.
