Hi Mark.

Sorry, this is v2 patch.

	- Subject: Re: [RFC][PATCH] ASoC: soc-core: verify Sound Card normality
	+ Subject: Re: [RFC][PATCH v2] ASoC: soc-core: verify Sound Card normality

> Current ALSA SoC Sound Card basically consists of CPU/Codec/Platform
> components. If system uses Kernel modules, we can disable these drivers
> by using rmmod command. In such case, we can't disable
> CPU/Codec/Platform driver without disabling Sound Card driver.
> 
> But on the other hand, we can disable these drivers by using unbind
> command. In such case, we can disable these drivers randomly.
> In this case, we can create dirty Sound Card which is missing necessary
> components.
> 
> (1) If user disabled Sound Card first, but did nothing to other drivers,
> user can't use Sound because Sound Card is no longer exists.
> (2) If user disabled CPU/Codec/Platform driver randomly, but did nothing
> to Sound Card, user still be able to use Sound Card, because dirty Sound
> Card still exists. In this case, Sound system will be crashed if user
> started sound playback/capture. But we can't block such random unbind
> now.
> 
> To avoid Sound Card crash in (2) case, we need to unregister Sound Card
> whenever CPU/Codec/Platform component were unregistered.
> This patch solves this issue.
