Sometimes HDMI audio fails while fast switching
between HDMI and Speaker due to codec Get Power state verb read failure.

Verb is codec driver to access codec HW. Since issue scenario involves
fast switching between HDMI and speaker, there might be chance to fail
read from HW and same happened in the error scenario.

Based on Display/Graphics architect suggestion, added a retry mechanism
for failure on first attempt.

Changes from v1:
-Corrected missing braces.

Do you still need this even with the very latest upstream code?
As mentioned, the recent change to use the sync-write should reduce
such errors.

If it's about the SOF/SST, you can try to set the hdac_bus.sync_write
flag in the corresponding drivers, too.


thanks,

Takashi
