I tested this kernel here are my findings.

1. Headphones input/output are unplugged by default now

2. When I physically plug it in and select headphones input/output as
default, from next plug in it auto switches to headphones input/output
from internal input/output and vice versa.

2. Headphones microphone is working fine now, had to set mic boost(seems
to be tied to microphone sensitivity) in alsamixer to max to get good
sensitivity was set to 0 at first.


So, all issues I mentioned above seems to be solved but I have few extra small 
issues and want to get some insights into it before fully marking this thread 
as solved.

1. When internal microphone switches to external headphone microphone,
internal microphone is still on and keeps picking up compared to
internal speakers/headphones output where one or the other is muted
automatically.

2. In the legacy driver when earphones/headphones is plugged in internal
input/output devices shows as unavailable in pulse audio control and
can't be selected in gnome sound settings, in current driver seems like
all devices are active and can be switched without unplugging
headphones/earphones. I am not sure if this is something that needs to
be fixed.

3. I also notice few unplugged hdmi devices in pulse audio control which
are not shown when switching to legacy driver. Like HDMI1/DP1 Output,
HDMI2/DP2 Output, HDMI3/DP3 Output all of them are shown as unplugged.
Also, not sure if this is something that needs to be fixed.

If you could provide some insights on these 3 extra issues would really
appreciate it. Thanks again.
