[BISECTED] NULL pointer dereference while probing sun8i-codec

[Kuninori Morimoto]

Hi J. Neuschäfer

Thank you for reporting, and sorry for my late response (I was in summer
vacation).

Thanks.
I think it is...
	- snd_dmaengine_pcm is sharing same dev with CPU and Platform
	- Platform has driver->name (no problem)
	- CPU doesn't have driver->name (will be NULL pointer access)

I guess your CPU component doesn't have driver->name ?
Anyway, it should care about such case. I will post 2 patches (1st is for
fixup this issue, 2nd is cleanup patch).
Could you please test both patches ?

Thank you for your help !!

Best regards
