[alsa-devel] [PATCH 10/17] Don't lock the codec list in snd_soc_dapm_new_widgets()

[Mark Brown]

snd_soc_dapm_new_widgets() takes the codec lock when adding new widgets,
causing lockdep warnings when applications later call down through ALSA
to adjust controls.  Since widgets are only added during probe this lock
should be unneeded so don't take it.

Thanks to Dmitry Baryshkov <dbaryshkov at gmail.com> for reporting this issue.
