Cold reboot stress test found that the hda irq could access rirb ring buffer before its memory gets allocated which resulting in null pointer dereference inside snd_hdac_bus_update_rirb(). Fix it by moving the skl_acquire_irq after ring buffer allocation. While here, also change err return from -EBUSY to actual error code.
