Why is this a problem?

In existing Qualcomm setup the backend pcm are added first, which results in frontend pcms getting pcm numbers after this.

For example: with 3 backend dailinks in DT we have frontend pcm start at 3. Now if we add new backend dai-link in DT we now have frontend pcm start at 4.

This is a bug in qualcomm driver.


With this patch patch now the MultiMedia1 PCM ends up with device number 0
as expected.

Won't this be an ABI change?  That seems like it'd disrupt things in
stable.
Yes, but this is a real bug. without fixing this also results in abi(pcm number) change when we add new backend dai-link. I have also sent fix for UCM to handle this.
