Thanks for the patch.
We can go better further with this patch now :)

The logic is basically fine, but just a few comments...

I feel it isn't intuitive to return -EIO here.
It'd be more straightforward to call snd_intel8x0_ich_chip_reset()
from here?

if (snd_pci_quirk_lookup(chip->pci, ich_chip_reset_mode))
return snd_intl8x0_ich_chip_reset(chip);

Please make the change checkpatch-clean.

Could you fix and repost?
