Actually it's not about the sysfs, but rather the superfluous calls of
snd_hda_codec_build_controls() & co.  The fix patch is below.

Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: hda - Fix broken reconfig

The HD-audio reconfig function got broken in the recent kernels,
typically resulting in a failure like:
  snd_hda_intel 0000:00:1b.0: control 3:0:0:Playback Channel Map:0 is already present

This is because of the code restructuring to move the PCM and control
instantiation into the codec drive probe, by the commit [bcd96557bd0a:
ALSA: hda - Build PCMs and controls at codec driver probe].  Although
the commit above removed the calls of snd_hda_codec_build_pcms() and
*_build_controls() at the controller driver probe, the similar calls
in the reconfig were still left forgotten.  This caused the
conflicting and duplicated PCMs and controls.

The fix is trivial: just remove these superfluous calls from
reconfig_codec().

Fixes: bcd96557bd0a ('ALSA: hda - Build PCMs and controls at codec driver probe')

Sorry for the confusion, I did not notice. Anyway, I have tested the
patch with 4.5, changed codec hints, reconfig and no error messages and
the changed hints have been respected after reconfig, looks good for me.
