I think the case you hit was specifically snd_card_disconnect_sync() that 
gets called via snd_sof_machine_unregister(), right, so you'd have to skip 
both sof_unregister_clients() and the machine_unregister().

Skipping ok might be an ok solution here. There's clearly a problem and we 
cannot just drop these calls in the general case (when we are going to 
S5), but in the specific case of kexec, this is probably safe. And I agree 
one way or another this needs to be fixed. Pierre and others what do you 
think?

Br, Kai
