Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: hda: conexant: Remove mic bias threshold override

Remove the mic bias current comparator threshold override (NID 0x1c,
verb 0x320, value 0x010) from Conexant codec driver.

This override was originally intended to support volume up/down controls on
headsets with inline remote controls, but it causes microphone detection
failures on some headsets with impedance less than 1k ohm.

After consulting with the vendor's engineers, it was confirmed that this
setting is board-specific and should be handled by BIOS/firmware rather
than the generic codec driver, especially since inline remote support
is not currently implemented.
