It is :)

That's the cause.  It passes NULL to the device object, which is
incorrect in anyway.  I guess this used to work casually just because
x86 accepts the NULL device object as if an ISA device.

If the driver allocates the buffer via vmalloc (and the snd_* helper),
it shouldn't do preallocate in that way.  That is, the correct fix
would  be simply to drop snd_pcm_lib_preallocate_pages_for_all() call
from the driver code.

Also, a quick skimming showed that the driver needs to set
snd_pcm_lib_get_vmalloc_page to the snd_pcm_ops.page ops.

That's the code before actually allocating the buffer itself.  It
checks the availability of mmap support on the architecture, and the
helper code assumed a proper device object passed there via the
preallocation helper.
