Remove no_pcm check to invoke pcm_new() for backend dai-links too. This fixes crash in hdmi codec driver during hdmi_codec_startup() while accessing chmap_info struct. chmap_info struct memory is allocated in pcm_new() of hdmi codec driver which is not invoked in case of DPCM when hdmi codec driver is part of backend dai-link.
