To provide backward compatibility to older systems, the SOF HDA driver
allows user to specify which HDMI codec driver to use at runtime via
kernel parameter. This mechanism has a subtle flaw in that it assumes
the codec drivers not to be loaded when the SOF PCI driver is loaded.
The problem is rooted in use of the hdev->type field.
snd_hdac_ext_bus_device_init() initializes this field to HDA_DEV_ASOC.
This signals the HDA core that ASoC drivers should be considered in
driver matching (hda_bus_match()). The SOF and SST drivers continue by
overriding this field to HDA_DEV_LEGACY and proceeding to load driver
modules with request_module(). Correct drivers will get loaded and
attached.
If however the codec drivers are already loaded when
snd_hdac_ext_bus_device_init() is called, the matching will not work as
expected as device type is still set to HDA_DEV_ASOC. Specifically if
hdac-hdmi is attached when machine driver is configured to use hdac-hda,
this leads to out-of-bounds memory access in
hda_dsp_hdmi_build_controls().
Fix the issue by adding codec type as a parameter to
snd_hdac_ext_bus_device_init() and ensuring type is set correctly from
the start.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
