We've got strange errors in get_ctl_value() in mixer.c during probing, e.g. on Hercules RMX2 DJ Controller: ALSA mixer.c:352 cannot get ctl value: req = 0x83, wValue = 0x201, wIndex = 0xa00, type = 4 ALSA mixer.c:352 cannot get ctl value: req = 0x83, wValue = 0x200, wIndex = 0xa00, type = 4 .... It turned out that the culprit is autopm: snd_usb_autoresume() returns -ENODEV when called during card->probing = 1. Since the call itself during card->probing = 1 is valid, let's fix the return value of snd_usb_autoresume() as success.
