soc_pcm_components_open() try to call try_module_get()
based on component->driver->module_get_upon_open.
But, it should be always called, not relatead to .open callback.
It should be called at (A) istead of (B)

=> (A)
	if (!component->driver->ops ||
	    !component->driver->ops->open)
		continue;
=> (B)
	if (component->driver->module_get_upon_open &&
	    !try_module_get(component->dev->driver->owner)) {
		...
	}

	ret = component->driver->ops->open(substream);

I think this patch is correct, but I'm not sure.
I'm happy if someone can confirm it.

The try_module_get()/module_put() mechanism is based on the
assumption
that the .open and .close callbacks are both mandatory.
Hi Pierre,
But is this enforced? We could end up doing a try_module_get() without
checking if there is a close callback in which case we'd never do the
module_put(), isnt it?


My initial feedback was that changing the open case only wouldn't work.

We need to enforce that both the open/close callbacks are required and leave the code as is, or we apply both of Morimoto-san's patches (which unfortunately have the same subject to cover the two cases) and both open and close are optional - though I am having a hard time figuring out case where we we'd use one and the other.


Thanks,
Ranjani

open flow:
		if (!component->driver->ops ||
		    !component->driver->ops->open)
			continue;

		if (component->driver->module_get_upon_open &&
		    !try_module_get(component->dev->driver->owner)) {
			ret = -ENODEV;
			goto module_err;
		}

		ret = component->driver->ops->open(substream);

close flow:
		if (!component->driver->ops ||
		    !component->driver->ops->close)
			continue;

		component->driver->ops->close(substream);

		if (component->driver->module_get_upon_open)
			module_put(component->dev->driver->owner);

it'd be odd to allow the refcount to be increased when there is no
.open, since if there is no .close either then the refcount never
decreases.
