3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Lars-Peter Clausen <l...@metafoo.de> commit fe581391147cb3d738d961d0f1233d91a9e1113c upstream. list_first_entry() will always return a valid pointer, even if the list is empty. So the check whether path is NULL will always be false. So we end up calling dapm_create_or_share_mixmux_kcontrol() with a path struct that points right in the middle of the widget struct and by trying to modify the path the widgets memory will become corrupted. Fix this by using list_emtpy() to check if the widget doesn't have any paths.
