Patch looks good. I only concern is whether we should have more conservative opt-out approach to deploy this to existing system, see thesofproject/linux#5041 (review)

Not in agreement, see comments on the kernel side. I want to keep those tests as telltales of possible issues. Exhibit A is the SoundWire bank switch time out found mostly with pause-release and now found in regular cases now that we're looking into it. |

if we use the hda_force_pause_support kernel parameter we don't need to special-case the nocodec topology.
Best to define the token as false always, and gradually re-add support as 'true' if/when ready on a platform-by-platform basis

… by default We need to face with reality that the pause/resume is a feature that is not well tested (end users are using audio via audio servers and they don't use pause/resume) causing constant issues with no real life benefit: With IPC4 multiple pause/resume will make the delay reporting to be exponentially shoot out, making the reported delay to be unusable. Looks like suspend/resume with paused stream has been broken for a long time and just got noticed (since it was not tested). Add a new token to allow selected PCMs to advertise pause support and keep it false by default. The kernel side will allow ignoring the flag to keep the pause advertised for continued testing while protecting accidental use of it by users.

@lgirdwood @kv2019i this can be merged without waiting for CI to be ready - it's however required on the kernel side.
