[PATCH] Fix for ALSA AC'97 Init not working in post 2.6.7 mm-kernels

[Stefan Schweizer <sschweizer@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I noticed that my soundcad stopped working in the mm-kernels after 2.6.7.
The kernel log produces this message:

AC'97 0 does not respond - RESET

I grepped for it in the mm-patch and reverted the mm-changes there,
that fixed it for me.
I do not know what the change in the code is useful for but it breaks
my soundcard
Intel Corp. 82801BA/BAM AC'97 Audio (rev 05)
driver snd-intel8x0
