The VC4 HDMI controller driver relies on the HDMI codec ASoC driver. In
order to set it up properly, in vc4_hdmi_audio_init(), our HDMI driver
will register a device matching the HDMI codec driver, and then register
an ASoC card using that codec.
However, if vc4 is compiled as a module, chances are that the hdmi-codec
driver will be too. In such a case, the module loader will have a very
narrow window to load the module between the device registration and the
card registration.
If it fails to load the module in time, the card registration will fail
with EPROBE_DEFER, and we'll abort the audio initialisation,
unregistering the HDMI codec device in the process.
The next time the bind callback will be run, it's likely that we end up
missing that window again, effectively preventing vc4 to probe entirely.
In order to prevent this, we can create a soft dependency of the vc4
driver on the HDMI codec one so that we're sure the HDMI codec will be
loaded before the VC4 module is, and thus we'll never end up in the
previous situation.

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.
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.
