So oddly, using this instead of just "return ret;", doesn't seem to
fully resolve the issue for me. It's baffling!

My only guess is at boot up I get a *ton* of error messages:
  q6routing remoteproc-adsp:glink-edge:apr:apr-service@8:routing:
ASoC: error at soc_component_read_no_lock on
remoteproc-adsp:glink-edge:apr:5
which I suspect is causing other failures due to timing issues.

Srini sent me a patch to provide dummy read functions for the routing
and dai components that were missing it, and that seems to properly
avoid the issue.

thanks
