Thanks for the patch.  Unfortunately, this can't be applied as is.
struct snd_ctl_card_info is exported and used as the ioctl parameter,
thus you cannot change the size.

One possible fix is to merge reserved[48] into components[80]
so that the struct size is kept as is.
But still we have to be very careful to such a change, and need to
investigate all possible places to refer it.
