ALSA: hda/tegra - async probe for avoiding module loading deadlock
The Tegra HD-audio controller driver causes deadlocks when loaded as a
module since the driver invokes request_module() at binding with the
codec driver. This patch works around it by deferring the probe in a
work like Intel HD-audio controller driver does. Although hovering
the codec probe stuff into udev would be a better solution, it may
cause other regressions, so let's try this band-aid fix until the more
proper solution gets landed.
