4.2.8-ckt3 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit c0bcdbdff3ff73a54161fca3cb8b6cdbd0bb8762 upstream.

When a TLV ioctl with numid zero is handled, the driver may spew a
kernel warning with a stack trace at each call. The check was
intended obviously only for a kernel driver, but not for a user
interaction. Let's fix it.

This was spotted by syzkaller fuzzer.
