Hi,

This series is the next step in componentization. It moves the DAPM support to
the component level. This will allow any component to have DAPM widgets and
routes, which was previously only possible for CODECs, and will allow any
component to have DAPM widgets with controls (i.e. Mixers and MUXs), which was
previously only possible for CODECs. At the end of this patchset the DAPM code
will have (almost) no dependency on snd_soc_codec or snd_soc_platform and the
dependency on snd_soc_component is confined to 4 small helper functions. The
only reason why there is still snd_soc_codec/snd_soc_platform dependent code is
because there are still a lot of drivers which use widget->codec/platform and
dapm->codec/platform. So those still need to be initialized. This will be
cleaned up in a separate series and once that's done the codec and platform
fields will be removed from the widget and DAPM context struct.

One of the major problems of moving DAPM to the component level is that the DAPM
context is directly embedded in the snd_soc_codec and snd_soc_platform structs
and there are many drivers directly accessing that embedded field. This means it
is not possible to move the field without causing a bit of code churn in the
drivers. The patch series solves this by adding two fields to the component
struct. One pointer to a DAPM context, which points to the DAPM context that is
used by the component. And one DAPM context, which is used as the default if no
other DAPM context was provided. Neither of the fields is accessed directly,
instead a inline helper function is added that returns the DAPM context for a
component. This will make it possible to eventually seamlessly switch over once
all direct references to CODEC and platform DAPM contexts have been eliminated.

Depends on topic/component, topic/core, topic/dapm and topic/dt
