There are 4 drivers calling that:

  snd_soc_dummy_probe
  rt5514_spi_probe
  2 instances of snd_dmaengine_pcm_register, via rockchip_i2s_probe

Only the latter two seem to run the assignment here:

	if (platform_drv->pcm_new)
		platform->component.pcm_new = snd_soc_platform_drv_pcm_new;

Both snd_soc_dummy_probe and rt5514_spi_probe find ->pcm_new NULL here.

I'm running with the sound/soc/rockchip/rk3399_gru_sound.c platform
driver. If it helps, I'm using the DT posted at [1]. IIUC, the "RT5514
DSP" link is trying to link up a "snd-soc-dummy" instance.

I'm fairly thoroughly confused. Any better ideas?

Brian
