FWIW, snd_hdac_ext_bus_device_remove() is called at the machine driver
remove callback that is called from soc_remove_dai_linkes() in
soc_cleanup_card_resources().  There, the order is assured that
snd_card_free() gets called at first, so this change should be
correct -- the HD-audio codec object gets freed at a later point for
ASoC.


thanks,

Takashi
