+    MORE NOTES ON "azx_get_response timeout" PROBLEMS:
+    On some hardwares, you may need to add a proper probe_mask option
+    to avoid the "azx_get_response timeout" problem above, instead.
+    This occurs when the access to non-existing or non-working codec slot
+    (likely a modem one) causes a stall of the communication via HD-audio
+    bus.  You can see which codec slots are probed by enabling
+    CONFIG_SND_DEBUG_DETECT, or simply from the file name of the codec
+    proc files.  Then limit the slots to probe by probe_mask option.
+    For example, probe_mask=1 means to probe only the first slot, and
+    probe_mask=4 means only the third slot.
+
     The power-management is supported.
