From 115551d98e4c05bb982bd940f08a489fa9b0a4a1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Simon Arlott Date: Sun, 21 Jun 2009 19:50:48 +0100 Subject: ALSA: via82xx: add option to disable 500ms delay in snd_via82xx_codec_wait There's a large 500ms delay in snd_via82xx_codec_wait() that, at least on my hardware, appears to be unnecessary. The rest of the init of the card works without logging any warnings or errors and both audio and mixer settings work. This adds an "nodelay" parameter to disable this (undocumented in the code) large delay improving bootup time by 489-500ms.
