Subject: Applied "ASoC: Intel: avoid Oops if DMA setup fails" to the asoc tree

The patch

   ASoC: Intel: avoid Oops if DMA setup fails

has been applied to the asoc tree at

   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git for-5.2

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: Intel: avoid Oops if DMA setup fails

Currently in sst_dsp_new() if we get an error return from sst_dma_new()
we just print an error message and then still complete the function
successfully.  This means that we are trying to run without sst->dma
properly set up, which will result in NULL pointer dereference when
sst->dma is later used.  This was happening for me in
sst_dsp_dma_get_channel():

        struct sst_dma *dma = dsp->dma;
	...
        dma->ch = dma_request_channel(mask, dma_chan_filter, dsp);

This resulted in:

   BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000018
   IP: sst_dsp_dma_get_channel+0x4f/0x125 [snd_soc_sst_firmware]

Fix this by adding proper error handling for the case where we fail to
set up DMA.

This change only affects Haswell and Broadwell systems.  Baytrail
systems explicilty opt-out of DMA via sst->pdata->resindex_dma_base
being set to -1.
