Subject: [PATCH v2] ASoC: fsl_easrc: Check for null pointer before dereferencing "ctx" in fsl_easrc_hw_free()

The patch 955ac624058f: "ASoC: fsl_easrc: Add EASRC ASoC CPU DAI
drivers" from Apr 16, 2020, leads to the following Smatch complaint:

sound/soc/fsl/fsl_easrc.c:1529 fsl_easrc_hw_free()
warn: variable dereferenced before check 'ctx' (see line 1527)

sound/soc/fsl/fsl_easrc.c
  1526          struct fsl_asrc_pair *ctx = runtime->private_data;
  1527          struct fsl_easrc_ctx_priv *ctx_priv = ctx->private;
                                                      ^^^^^
Dereference

  1528
  1529          if (ctx && (ctx_priv->ctx_streams & BIT(substream->stream))) {
                    ^^^
This check is too late, to prevent a NULL dereference.

  1530                  ctx_priv->ctx_streams &= ~BIT(substream->stream);
  1531                  fsl_easrc_release_context(ctx);
