[alsa-devel] [PATCH v2] ASoC: pxa2xx-ac97: fix oops when codec_driver probe runs

Change log:
v2: pxa2xx_ac97_hw_probe() is called *before* snd_soc_register_dais(), and
    likewise pxa2xx_ac97_hw_remove() is called after snd_soc_unregister_dais().
    Thanks much Mark.

This patch fixes a kernel oops that occurs when the snd_soc_codec_driver probe
function runs.  The exception occurs when the codec calls soc_ac97_ops.reset().
The pxa2xx-ac97's clocks have not been initialized at this point, but the cpu's
reset function (pxa_ac97_cold_pxa27x()) expects them to be, resulting in a NULL
pointer dereference in the pxa's clk_enable().

The pxa2xx-ac97's clocks are initialized in pxa2xx_ac97_hw_probe().  To ensure
that the clocks are initialized when the codec_driver probe runs, the calls to
pxa2xx_ac97_hw_{probe,remove}() are moved from the cpu's dai_driver probe/remove
functions to those of its platform_driver.  This is necessary because
snd_soc_instantiate_card() always calls the codec_driver probe before any of the
dai_drivers' probes.

This change leaves nothing in the cpu's dai_driver probe/remove functions, so
those functions are eliminated.

Tested on the pxa27x; palmtreo680 machine using the wm9712 codec.
