we could alternatively move the test in intel_nhlt_free, which seems
like a more robust thing to do?
Depends. In general kernel-internal API trusts its caller and appending
'ifs' everywhere would unnecessarily slow entire kernel down. While
intel_nhlt_free is called rarely, I'd still argue caller should be sane
about its invocation.
'if' in skl_probe could be avoided had the function's structure been
better. 'if' in skl_remove is just fine, though.
Let's leave it as is.
