Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: hda: Increase default bdl_pos_adj for Apollo Lake

Apollo Lake seems to also suffer from IRQ timing issues. After being up for ~4
minutes, a Pentium N4200 system ends up falling back to workqueue-based IRQ
handling:

[ 208.019906] snd_hda_intel 0000:00:0e.0: IRQ timing workaround is activated
for card #0. Suggest a bigger bdl_pos_adj.

Unfortunately, the Baytrail and Braswell workaround value of 32 samples isn't
enough to fix the issue here. Default to 64 samples.

And seems like I've missed some IDs, when doing PCI IDs conversion.
Anyway, can you use PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_HDA_APL instead of 0x5a98 as it
is self describing (no need for comment)?

And if you want more patches in kernel - convert first 0x0f04 & 0x2284
to PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_HDA_BYT & PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_HDA_BSW and then do
the above change ;)

Oh, of course! I would have done it if I knew we had those constants defined. :)

Killing magic numbers is always a worthwhile goal. Expect a two-patch
series soon, then. ;)
