Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.
We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.
But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.
->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.
rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.
Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.
So, let's nuke it.
Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

Add a quirk model=acer-aspire for Acer Ferrari 5000 with ALC883 codec.
Note that model=auto doesn't work for this laptop because of broken BIOS
(that doesn't set the subsystem id properly).

Replace with the standard function calls to use caches for reading
the widget caps and pin caps.
hda_proc.c is still using the direct verbs to get raw values as
much as possible.

In patch_realtek.c, don't create empty or single-item "Input Source"

The check for the amp-output must be done for widget-caps rather than
pin-caps as implemented in the recent change... Simply a thinko.
Also, add the similar checks to all places that put output-amp mutes
in the initialization.

Added snd_hda_query_pin_caps() to read and cache pin-cap values

Don't set amp-out values to pins without PINCAP_OUT capability,
which are usually assigned for digital mics on ALC663/ALC272.

Make the boundary checks a bit safer.
These caese are rare or theoretically won't happen, but nothing
