Subject: [PATCH v4] ALSA: ASoC: soc-compress.c: fix NULL dereference

In soc_new_compress() when rtd->dai_link->dynamic is set, we create the pcm
substreams with this call:

   ret = snd_pcm_new_internal(rtd->card->snd_card, new_name, num,
                                   1, 0, &be_pcm);

which passes 0 as capture_count leading to

   be_pcm->streams[SNDRV_PCM_STREAM_CAPTURE].substream

being NULL, hence when trying to set rtd a few lines below we get an oops.

Fix by using rtd->dai_link->dpcm_playback and rtd->dai_link->dpcm_capture as
playback_count and capture_count to snd_pcm_new_internal().

v4->v3:
  - the typo fix went wrong, apologies for the noise

v3->v2:
  - fix a typo s/dynmic/dynamic/ in commit message
  - use if else if because either dpcm_playback or dpcm_capture should be on
    for compressed devices

v2->v1:
   - use better way to fix it than just removing the line that caused the oops
