Subject: [PATCH 4.14 074/137] ASoC: dapm: Fix potential DAI widget pointer deref when linking DAIs

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Liam Girdwood <liam.r.girdwood@...ux.intel.com>

[ Upstream commit e01b4f624278d5efe5fb5da585ca371947b16680 ]

Sometime a component or topology may configure a DAI widget with no
private data leading to a dev_dbg() dereferencne of this data.

Fix this to check for non NULL private data and let users know if widget
is missing DAI.
