[PATCH alsa-lib 2/3] mixer: Add exception for non " Volume" suffixed capture vol-ctls used in ASoC realtek codec drivers

The following ASoC codec drivers:

sound/soc/codecs/rt5640.c
sound/soc/codecs/rt5645.c
sound/soc/codecs/rt5651.c
sound/soc/codecs/rt5677.c

Use capture-volume-control names like: "IN1 Boost", note the missing
" Volume" suffix. This causes the mixer code to not identify these as
volume-controls, which causes some of the dB related sm_elem_ops to
return -EINVAL.

This in turn causes alsamixer to not show dB info and causes UCM profile
HW volume control support in pulseaudio to not work properly due to the
lacking dB scale info.

This cannot be fixed on the kernel side because the non " Volume" suffixed
names are used in UCM profiles currently shipping in alsa-ucm-conf.

Add some code to the base_len() function, which is responsbile for
getting the control-type to deal with these special cases.
