fixes

1. Subwoofer does not work out of the box on my Asus N750JV.
2. There is constant white noise from headphones (same as Bug 70821 for Asus N550JV).

I have a patch that fixes both problems.
1. is fixed by applying same config fix as for N550JV
2. is fixed by muting by amp. The same fixup sould work for N550JV and close bug 70821

The patch looks good to me.  Could you provide the proper changelog and your sign-off to get it merged into upstream?  See Documentation/SubmittingPatches for details.

We can add one more patch to apply your quirk for N550JV later, too.

Asus N550JV headphone white noise fixup, bug 70821

this is untested, but given how almost identical the hardware is and bug 70821 it should work.
even if is not applyed someone with Asus N550JV and headphone white noise may find it here and maybe test it.
