Takashi-san, I agree that the names with hyphens (snd-hda-intel)
are present in help sections of many options in sound/pci/hda/Kconfig.
But snd-hda-intel is confusing from end user point of view.
After reading notes.rst, end user is going to do someting like this:
lsmod | grep snd-hda-intel
and this command gives false result.
Also this modprobe.conf file is not going to work but it's an existing
example in Documentation/sound/hd-audio/notes.rst:

Cheers,
Radek
