If you mean the audio working with this patch while power well feature enabled, I say yes. Please see my reply after sending this patch: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/intel-gfx/2013-April/027157.html The patch could prevent power well losing, thus audio driver could keep its power on. Without this patch, audio codec info will become unavailable if the power well is shut down by graphic side. > Once we have that fixed up, we can revisit the interface and make it solid. > But > for now trying to polish this relatively simple part seems like wasted time. > > Also, reviewing an interface is much easier if we have both the i915 pieces > (already here) and the audio pieces (which I haven't seen yet) avaialble. It's good idea to list audio driver's usage pieces, I will prepare for that in another email later.
