The hcp->chmap_info must not be freed up in the hdmi_codec_remove() function as it leads to kernel crash due ALSA core's pcm_chmap_ctl_private_free() is trying to free it up again when the card destroyed via snd_card_free.
Since the driver was converted to devm_snd_soc_register_component() the whole platform_device.remove can be removed.
Commit cd6111b26280a ("ASoC: hdmi-codec: add channel mapping control") should not have added the kfree(hcp->chmap_info); to the hdmi_codec_remove function.
[Separate verison of the fix for -next -- broonie]
