That's telling me that either snd_soc_find_components() isn't finding components in the same way that we do when we bind things which isn't good or we're binding links without having fully matched everything on the link which also isn't good. Without a system that shows the issue I can't 100% confirm but I think it's the former - I'm fairly sure that those machines are relying on the component name being initialized to fmt_single_name() in snd_soc_component_initialize(). That is supposed to wind up using dev_name() (which would be the PCI address for a PCI device) as the basis of the name. What I can't currently see is how exactly that gets bound (or how any of the other links avoid trouble for that matter). We could revert and push this into cards but I would rather be confident that we understand what's going on, I'm not comfortable that we aren't just pushing the breakage around rather than fixing it. Can someone with an x86 system take a look and confirm exactly what's going on with binding these cards please?
