[PATCH 5/6] ASoC: topology: Change topology device to card device

From: Amadeusz Sławiński <amadeuszx.slawinski at linux.intel.com>

Topology needs device for prints and resource allocation. So far,
component->dev is used. However, this may lead to high memory use in
model where card is an independent driver which can be reloaded and
topology is loaded from component's probe() method. Every time machine
driver is reloaded topology is being loaded anew, each time allocating
new memory. Said memory will only be freed when component itself is
being freed.

Address the problem by tying topology to component->card->dev instead,
so memory occupied by the topology is freed whenever related machine
device gets removed.
