[alsa-devel] [PATCH 01/13] ASoC: SOF: loader: fix kernel oops on firmware boot failure

When we fail to boot the firmware, we encounter a kernel oops in
hda_dsp_get_registers(), which is called conditionally in
hda_dsp_dump() when the sdev_>boot_complete flag is set.

Setting this flag _after_ dumping the data fixes the issue and does
not change the programming flow.
