The snd_hdac_parse_widgets helper defined in hdac_codec.c populates members
of hdac_device structure like num_nodes, start_nid etc. Even though
widget_list is used in hda/ext, this looked generic to be added in
hdac_device. I am inclined to add these helpers in hdac_device.c or may be
move hdac_codec.c to sound/hda if you are ok.
