[alsa-lib][PATCH] ucm: fix crash when calling snd_use_case_geti() with no device or modifier

[Antonio Ospite <ao2@xxxxxx>]

When calling snd_use_case_geti(uc_mgr, "_devstatus", &lvalue) the code
ends up calling device_status(uc_mgr, NULL), which result in a crash in
strcmp(dev->name, NULL), when there are enabled devices.

This happens because snd_use_case_geti() allows a "_devstatus"
identifier even if it's only supposed to allow the form
"_devstatus/{device}".

So check that the device name is not null.

The same issue occurs with "_modstatus", this change fixes that as well.

Hi,

the bug can be reproduced with a command like this:

  # alsaucm -n -b - <<EOM
  open bytcr-rt5640
  reset
  set _verb HiFi
  set _device Speaker
  geti _devstatus
  EOM
  Segmentation fault

I decided to add the check once per command instead of doing this:

because the function body seems to be prepared to accept other forms of
identifiers, possibly even without a "prefix/suffix" structure.

Ciao ciao,

P.S. the source code in src/ucm has a mixed indentation style of TABs and
spaces, would you accept a patch to uniform the style?
