> [Impact]
> On Dell Slate Max systems with SoundWire Device Class Audio (SDCA) hardware, there is a race condition when setting up jack detection.
> Plug headset first, sound can output and headset Mic is workable.
> But after cold boot/reboot, audio device is keep but no sound output from headset, headset Mic also no function. Hot plug headset can recovery.

> 1. Boot the system with headphones unplugged.
> 2. Plug headphones in and check the jack state:
> 3. Unplug headphones and verify sound switches back.
> 4. Reload the SoundWire driver modules or trigger suspend/resume to force card teardown and reprobe:

> Or reload the SoundWire modules:
>
> $ sudo modprobe -r snd_sof_intel_sdw
> $ sudo modprobe snd_sof_intel_sdw
>
> Without these patches:
> - On boot, headphones might show up as connected when they are not, or sound might not switch correctly when plugged in.
> - After suspend/resume or reloading modules, jack detection stops working, or the system crashes/shows warnings due to stale pointers.
>
> With these patches:
> - Headphones and speaker paths are always set correctly on boot.
> - Jack detection and audio routing work correctly after suspend/resume and driver reloads.
>
> [Where problems could occur]
> Could break SDCA jack detection and SoundWire audio class drivers.
> If the new fixup_controls callback has a bug, jack IRQs will not be registered. Jack detection could stop working completely.
> If the cached kcontrol search gets a wrong pointer, the kernel will crash with a NULL pointer dereference when the IRQ handler runs.

> [Other Info]
> All seven patches are upstream in v7.2-rc6.

> v2 change:
> - Added missing fix commit 36c543cc5100 ("ASoC: SDCA: Fix bad move of
> jack_state initialisation") which fixes cb3c257e0824 ("ASoC: SDCA:
> Add correct masks whilst reporting SDCA jack status"). Without this
> commit, the jack_state initialisation was accidentally moved after
> its use, causing incorrect jack detection behavior.

> v3 change:
> - Remove the non-essential patches which only do refactoring
>
> v4 change:
> - Remove duplocated reporting logic: introduced type_get_mask and
> replaced duplicated switch in sdca_jack_report()
>
> v5 change:
> - introduce the dependency from upstream f6970d8535a9
> 'ASoC: SDCA: Add missing stub for sdca_fdl_free_state()'.
> - Remove dead helper 'type_get_mask' and implement local mapping
> in sdca_jack_report
>
> v6 change:
> - Restores alloc/init/free symmetry and fixes the transient leak
> for the sdca_jack_state manipulation.
>
> v7 change:
> - Replace the original 7 patches backport into UBUNTU SAUCE patches
> - Leave the interrupt where resolute already requests it and simply
> resynchronise once the control has been created, instead of moving
> the interrupt lifetime around.

> v8 change:
> - Update the cover letter to reflect the change since v7
