The HD-audio i915 binding code contains a single pointer, hdac_acomp, for allowing the access to audio component from the master bind/unbind callbacks. This was needed because the callbacks pass only the device pointer and we can't guarantee the object type assigned to the drvdata (which is free for each controller driver implementation). And this implementation will be a problem if we support multiple components for different DRM drivers, not only i915. As a solution, allocate the audio component object via devres and associate it with the given device, so that the component callbacks can refer to it via devres_find(). The removal of the object is still done half-manually via devres_destroy() to make the code consistent (although it may work without the explicit call). Also, the snd_hda_i915_register_notifier() had the reference to hdac_acomp as well. In this patch, the corresponding code is removed by passing hdac_bus object to the function, too.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
