I wonder why a motherboard with 5 audio jacks on rear panel need
alc662_5stack_modes since it already have enough jacks for surround51 and
don't need any retasking

static struct hda_channel_mode alc662_5stack_modes[2] = {
       { 2, alc662_sixstack_ch6_init },
       { 6, alc662_sixstack_ch8_init },
};
