The two regressions are not caused by this series.

The mixer issue already exists and is fixed with Sameer Pujar's "ASoC:
ops: Fix multiple value control type" patch.

The "Runtime PM usage count underflow" is a mistake on my side, the
patch "ASoC: soc-component: use pm_runtime_resume_and_get()" is invalid
and shall not be merged.

No other problem detected.
