I am not following. Is this a fix for linux-5.4-y only, or is it
needed on
Mark's tree? In the latter case, what is broken? We've been using Mark's
tree without issues, wondering what we missed?
He's saying it's a fix for stable but it's just a cleanup and robustness
improvement in current kernels - when the patch 76d270364932 (ASoC:
topology: Check return value for snd_soc_add_dai_link()) was backported
by the bot the bot missed some other context which triggered bugs.
Exactly. It's because the commit
237d19080cd37e1ccf5462e63d8577d713f6da46 ("ASoC: soc-core: remove
topology specific operation") removed the link->dobj checks, but this
commit was not picked to the stable kernels.
The initialization reordering is fine for all kernels (and makes sense),
so I would like to apply it everywhere.
ok, thanks for the precisions.
