This patch fixes this. Hmm, from the first glance this needs to go into current release, however it seems that it has been broken by a73fb2df01866b772a48fab93401fe3edbe0b38d 2 years ago so nobody cares... Looking at the series I am not sure that this is right direction. You actually do want unlocked versions of snd_soc_dapm_* functions so that callers can take dapm mutex and then perform sequence of operations. The currect callers that were taking the mutex should probbaly be changed so that they do not drop it until they called unlocked version of snd_soc_dapm_sync().
