Subject: [PATCH v2] staging: greybus: audio: fix uninitialized value issue

The current implementation for gbcodec_mixer_dapm_ctl_put() uses
uninitialized gbvalue for comparison with updated value. This was found
using static analysis with coverity.

Uninitialized scalar variable (UNINIT)
11. uninit_use: Using uninitialized value
gbvalue.value.integer_value[0].
460        if (gbvalue.value.integer_value[0] != val) {

This patch fixes the issue with fetching the gbvalue before using it for
    comparision.

Fixes: 6339d2322c47 ("greybus: audio: Add topology parser for GB codec")
