[alsa-devel] [PATCH 24/31] media: au0828 fix null pointer reference in au0828_create_media_graph()

Add a new wrapper function to au0828_create_media_graph()
to be called as an entity_notify function to fix null
pointer dereference. A rebasing mistake resulted in
registering au0828_create_media_graph() without the
correct parameters which lead to the following
null pointer dereference:
