ALSA: hda - Skip Realtek SKU check for Lenovo machines
Realtek codec driver expects an implicit rule where either the codec SSID or the pincfg NID 0x1d contains the some information encoded in some bits. One of the expected information is there is the availability of PC beep, and the driver doesn't build up the PC beep control if this is *supposed* to be disabled there. Meanwhile, Lenovo doesn't seem to follow this requirement (yes it's non-standard after all), and the BIOS sets just the normal SSID and the pincfg values. This resulted in the lack of PC beep on a few machines, purely with a lucky or unlucky number. It didn't bother most people, but some people still demand the PC beep, as found in bug reports. This patch just adds the fixup chain to Lenovo machines to skip the SKU checks. Then the beep control will show up in the mixer, and user can still decide to enable / disable it via the standard mixer interface.
