[PATCH v7 0/2] ASoC: SOF: Fix deadlock when shutdown a frozen userspace

Since: 83bfc7e793b5 ("ASoC: SOF: core: unregister clients and machine drivers in .shutdown")
we wait for all the workloads to be completed during shutdown. This was done to 
avoid a stall once the device is started again.

Unfortunately this has the side effect of stalling kexec(), if the userspace
is frozen. Let's handle that case.
