I have a hard time getting enthusiastic about this but I think that's
more DPCM than anything else.  Otherwise this looks sensible as far as
it goes.  I don't have particular thoughts on exposing errors for the
BEs - we could do a dummy PCM, TBH that bodge was used in the past for
CODEC<->CODEC links but it's obviously inelegant and messy so I'm not
sure it'd help more than just doing something like log the messages in
the kernel.  It certainly doesn't seem good to introduce anything that
is visible to userspace but is DPCM specific.
