Subject: alsa: hide HDMI/ELD printks unless snd.debug=2
Date: Fri Nov 11 19:09:36 CST 2011

Also remove two warnings when CONFIG_SND_DEBUG is not set:

sound/pci/hda/patch_hdmi.c: In function âhdmi_intrinsic_eventâ:
sound/pci/hda/patch_hdmi.c:761:6: warning: unused variable âeldvâ [-Wunused-variable]
sound/pci/hda/patch_hdmi.c:760:6: warning: unused variable âpdâ [-Wunused-variable]
