Yes, nobody has really cared about it since we started pushing things
out of the card init into the device level.  We would also need to add a
way to force microphone biases on for devices where that's not a part of
the jack detection IP.

Cards should be able to do their requesting in their probe function
prior to registering with the core even without anything else, though
that needs a bit or refactoring too.
