Oh, sorry I forgot to mention that we only operate on device entry 0 
so far in the code. It's misleading.

These patches don't operate on MST audio. The full MST audio driver 
support will be implemented in the later patches. The patches help to 
prepare supporting MST audio.

The purpose of the patches is try to dynamically attach the Jack.

In the generic_hdmi_build_jack(), it will create the snd_jack based on 
the pcm. This is for the userspace. So userspace can see the Jack 
number is the same as PCM. The first Jack for the first PCM, and so 
on. And it is not attached to any pin at first.

In generic_hdmi_build_controls(), it will also create hda_jack_tbl 
based on the pin. The hda_jack_tbl will record the pin information.

When hotplug, in the hdmi_present_sense(), it will call 
xxx_jack_bind() to bind the snd_jack to hda_jack_tbl

I will. Thanks.
