[ALSA] ac97 - Add a workaround for broken quirk for VT1617A codec
On boards with VT1617A codec, the sound disappears suddenly.
This looks like a problem with HPE-bit control that is supposed to be
set in patch_vt1617a(). However, on such problematic hardwares, the
bit is actually reset mysteriously.
The patch adds a workaround for the wrong quirk.
