Okay the branch now has audio on my test setup,

I've had to hack out the intel_not_share_assigned_cvt function
it appears to do bad things, I set pin 6 to connection 0 (pin 2), the later
sets on pin 5/7 to connection 1 by that function seems to reprogram pin 6.

I'm guessing the connection is assigned to a device not a pin in the new hw,
and the same device is routed via pin 5/7 so I end up trashing it.

my test setup is a Haswell Lenovo t440s + docking station + Dell U2410.

Dave.
