We shouldn't be doing a kfree() on the ops at all.

That *might* work if ops were changed to be a member variable, though
it's racy against two things initializing simultaneously.  

What I'd expect is something like:

        INIT_DELAYED_WORK(&rtd->delayed_work, close_delayed_work);
	rtd->pcm = pcm;
	rtd->pcm_ops = soc_pcm_ops;
	pcm->private_data = rtd;
	if (platform->driver->ops) {
		rtd->pcm_ops.mmap = platform->driver->ops->mmap;
		rtd->pcm_ops.pointer = platform->driver->ops->pointer;


and so on so we start off by taking a copy of the default ops then copy
the new ops in in the same fashion.  

Ideally we should also have an indirection for ioctl() though using it
at all is dodgy.
