ALSA: hda - Add snoop option
Added a new option "snoop" for the traffic control of the HD-audio controller chip. When set to 0, the non-snooping mode is used with the traffic control bit is set in each stream control register. This may allow better operations in the low power mode, but the actual implementation is depending pretty much on the chipset. As already implemented, more or less each chipset has own snoop-control register bit. Now this setup refers to the snoop option, too. Also, a new VIA chipset may require the non-snooping mode when set so in BIOS. In such a case, the option value is overridden. As default, it's still set to snoop=1 for keeping the same behavior as before. In near future, it'll be set to 0 as default after checking it works in every system well.
