Say Y or M here to include HDMI and DisplayPort HD-audio codec
support in snd-hda-intel driver. This includes all AMD/ATI,
Intel and Nvidia HDMI/DisplayPort codecs.

comment "Set to Y if you want auto-loading the codec driver"
depends on SND_HDA=y && SND_HDA_CODEC_HDMI=m
The DP-MST support requires more PCM streams than usual, hence CONFIG_SND_DYNAMIC_MINORS is almost mandatory. Currently the driver just warns and continues even if streams are missing, but it doesn't seem to enough convince users to switch to the modern setup. This patch adds the enforced selection of CONFIG_SND_DYNAMIC_MINORS from CONFIG_SND_HDA_CODEC_HDMI for covering that.
