Add a new ASoC card callback for filtering the kcontrols of the card's constituent components. This lets the card take over some of the controls, deciding their value instead of leaving it up to userspace.
Define "filter". What is this trying to accomplish? As a matter of policy we don't put use case configuration in the kernel, the goal is to avoid having to update the kernel when people decide to do new things with their userspace.
Also, and here's the HACK: part, move dapm_new_widgets call in front of the card's late_probe call. This way all kcontrols should have been created (and are safe to use) by the time late_probe is called.
This will break any card that adds new controls, you could add a second call earlier but deleting the existing call is going to break other users.
