Re: [PATCH] Revert "PCI: Enable NVIDIA HDA controllers"

[Lyude Paul <lyude@redhat.com>]

Also, I realized after sending this that I should clarify something so there
isn't any confusion.

A bunch of people on the bug that was mentioned in b516ea586d71 ("PCI: Enable
NVIDIA HDA controllers") said that this worked perfectly for their P50
laptops. While I don't doubt that at all, it should be noted that the P50
quirk there is only present on a _very specific_ subset of P50 SKUs, so it's
quite likely that the people in that bug report just didn't have a P50 that
hits this issue. The relevant model numbers of the P50 with the flakey bioses
that require this quirk should be mentioned here:
