[alsa-devel] [PATCH v2] Fix possible codec_dai->ops NULL pointer problems

[Barry Song]

From: Barry Song <barry.song at gmail.com>

Some codec DAIs like stac9766, wm9712, wm9713, ad1980 don't register themselves
then it loses to the chance to be given a null_dai_ops in snd_soc_register_dai
if they have no ops. When functions like soc_pcm_open, soc_pcm_hw_params etc.
access the ops field in these DAIs, panic will happen.
