From: xiao jin <jin.xiao@xxxxxxxxx> After start of fe and be, fe might go to close without triggering STOP, and substream->runtime is freed. However, be is still at START state and its substream->runtime still points to the freed runtime. Later on, FE is opened/started again, and triggers STOP. snd_pcm_do_stop => dpcm_fe_dai_trigger => dpcm_fe_dai_do_trigger => dpcm_be_dai_trigger => dpcm_do_trigger => soc_pcm_trigger => skl_platform_pcm_trigger skl_platform_pcm_trigger accesses the freed old runtime data and kernel panic. The patch fixes it by assigning be_substream->runtime in dpcm_be_dai_startup when be's state is START.
