Currently there are two null checks of pointer dai in function sof_connect_dai_widget and yet there is no null check of dai at the end of the function when checking !dai->name. The latter would be a null pointer deference if dai is null (as picked up by static analysis), however the function is only ever called when dai is successfully allocated, so the null checks are redundant. Clean up the code by removing the null checks.
