It's possible, and maybe we should move to it, but we'd need to
provide in card->longname for now because the component support in
user-space side isn't in major releases yet. The longname is ugly,
but that's the only way that works stably right now.
Also, we need a common helper function for adding the component string
in the kernel side, too, not specific to USB-audio.
