It seems that the whole disconnect call can be dropped for the BE, as
it does nothing practically for the register callback, either.
Other than that, managing the object with the ALSA core device list is
still worth for tracking the memory release.
Below is the patch to do that. It can be applied on top of the
previous two patches (snd_card_disconnect_sync() and
PCM-stop-at-disconnect).
thanks,
Takashi

Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: pcm: Don't call register and disconnect callbacks for
internal PCM
The internal PCM (aka DPCM backend PCM) doesn't need any registration
procedure, thus currently we bail out immediately at dev_register
callback. Similarly, its counterpart, dev_disconnect callback, is
superfluous for the internal PCM. For simplifying and avoiding the
conflicting disconnect call for internal PCM objects, this patch drops
dev_register and dev_disconnect callbacks for the internal ops.
The only uncertain thing by this action is whether skipping the PCM
state change to SNDRV_PCM_STATE_DISCONNECT for the internal PCM is
mandatory. Looking through the current implementations, this doesn't
look so, hence dropping the whole dev_disconnect would make more
sense.
