    ALSA: hda: Fix driver index handling at re-binding · 69458e2c
    Takashi Iwai authored
    HD-audio driver handles the multiple instances and keeps the static
    index that is incremented at each probe.  This becomes a problem when
    user tries to re-bind the device via sysfs multiple times; as the
    device index isn't cleared unlike rmmod case, it points to the next
    element at re-binding, and eventually later you can't probe any more
    when it reaches to SNDRV_CARDS_MAX (usually 32).
    
    This patch is an attempt to improve the handling at rebinding.
    Instead of a static device index, now we keep a bitmap and assigns to
    the first zero bit position.  At the driver remove, in return, the
    bitmap slot is cleared again, so that it'll be available for the next
    probe.
