[ALSA] Add experimental support of aggressive AC97 power-saving mode
Added CONFIG_SND_AC97_POWER_SAVE kernel config to enable the support
of aggressive AC97 power-saving mode. In this mode, the AC97
powerdown register bits are dynamically controlled at each open/close
of PCM streams.
The mode is activated via power_save option for snd-ac97-codec
driver. As default it's off. It can be turned on/off on the fly
via sysfs, too.
