4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> commit 305a0ade180981686eec1f92aa6252a7c6ebb1cf upstream. In the current code, the codec registration may happen both at the codec bind time and the end of the controller probe time. In a rare occasion, they race with each other, leading to Oops due to the still uninitialized card device. This patch introduces a simple flag to prevent the codec registration at the codec bind time as long as the controller probe is going on. The controller probe invokes snd_card_register() that does the whole registration task, and we don't need to register each piece beforehand.
