If not passed as module option, provide an own card ID with the newly introduced snd_set_card_id() call.
This will prevent ALSA from calling choose_default_name() which only takes the last part of a name containing whitespaces. This for example caused 'Audio 4 DJ' to be shortened to 'DJ', which was not very descriptive.
The implementation now takes the short name and removes all whitespaces from it which is much nicer.
