Subject: [PATCH 02/18] soundwire: fix race between driver probe and update_status callback

The driver probe takes care of basic initialization and is invoked
when a Slave becomes attached, after a match between the Slave DevID
registers and ACPI/DT entries.

The update_status callback is invoked when a Slave state changes,
e.g. when it is assigned a non-zero Device Number and it reports with
an ATTACHED/ALERT state.

The state change detection is usually hardware-based and based on the
SoundWire frame rate (e.g. double-digit microseconds) while the probe
is a pure software operation, which may involve a kernel module
load. In corner cases, it's possible that the state changes before the
probe completes.

This patch suggests the use of wait_for_completion to avoid races on
startup, so that the update_status callback does not rely on invalid
pointers/data structures.
