Hence the runtime PM status is always active and hda device cannot be
put to runtime suspend. Keeping device usage active for entire period,
though nothing really happening on the device, seems unnecessary.

This patch avoides incrementing runtime PM usage count of the device.

This breaks the existing things, I'm afraid.
Did you really test and verify the behavior...?

The runtime PM refcount is decremented at snd_hda_codec_register(),
and that's the place to let runtime suspend of the codec really
effective. (It's not about the controller, though.)

It worked fine at my end. I could put the device to runtime suspend and resume it back multiple times.
Since you are suggesting it could break things, let me rework on the patch and dig up a little more to
see if there is better way to fix this.

Thanks,
Sameer.

thanks,

Takashi
