The snd_card_unref() call in snd_pcm_link() looks suspicious through a
quick glance, but it's a correct usage; this is needed just because
the file descriptor check in is_pcm_file() calls the helper
snd_lookup_minor_data() that keeps the card refcount.
Despite of the correctness, the code still looks confusing.
Basically, keeping the card ref for the whole code isn't needed
as fdget() blocks the release of the opened file. Hence it's more
understandable if snd_card_unref() is moved into is_pcm_file(), then
the caller doesn't have to take care after the call.
