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.
Below is the crash stack:

Did you check whether all drivers have no side-effect by this change?
The hdmi-codec isn't the only driver that has pcm_new ops, so we have
to make sure that such a fundamental change wouldn't bring any
regressions.
Below are the drivers calling pcm_new() other than hdmi codec driver.
sound/soc/meson/axg-frddr.c
sound/soc/meson/axg-toddr.c
These two drivers are frontend DAI drivers and should not be impacted
because of this.
Other than this, pcm_new() is called from sound/soc/stm/stm32_sai_sub.c
I could not get much info about this driver. However, it is just adding
kcontrols in pcm_new() which uses internal private structs in get()/put().
Olivier Moysan can too confirm on this.
Thanks,
Rohit
