After bisection it says this was the offending commit.

PNP: increase the maximum number of resources
On some systems the number of resources(IO,MEM) returnedy by PNP device is
greater than the PNP constant, for example motherboard devices. It brings
that some resources can't be reserved and resource confilicts. This will
cause PCI resources are assigned wrongly in some systems, and cause hang.
This is a regression since we deleted ACPI motherboard driver and use PNP
system driver.

The audio device is 00:1b.0 (see my lspci -vvv output), the other
audio device works fine.

Here's why the driver fails to load:
[ 31.133060] ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1b.0[A] -> GSI 22 (level,
low) -> IRQ 22
[ 31.133141] PCI: Unable to reserve mem region #1:[EMAIL PROTECTED] for
device 0000:00:1b.0
[ 31.133197] ACPI: PCI interrupt for device 0000:00:1b.0 disabled
[ 31.133244] HDA Intel: probe of 0000:00:1b.0 failed with error -16
The iomem location of the HDA controller conflicts with this reservation
by the BIOS:
[ 22.906654] system 00:08: iomem range 0xfebfa000-0xfebfac00 has been
reserved
There was a patch floating around to ignore PnPACPI reservations which
conflict with PCI BARs, which appears to be what's happening in this
case. That patch originally worked for any board, but was later made
specific to a certain Supermicro motherboard which had the sata_nv
controller MMIO regions marked as reserved, preventing the driver from
loading. We may need a more general solution. See:
