Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 1/3] ASoC: soc-card: export snd_soc_lookup_component_nolocked

snd_soc_lookup_component_nolocked can be used for the DPCM case
that Front-End needs to get the unused platform component but
added by Back-End cpu dai driver.

If the component is gotten, then we can get the dma chan created
by Back-End component and reused it in Front-End.

Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 3/3] ASoC: fsl_asrc_dma: Reuse the dma channel if available in Back-End

The dma channel has been requested by Back-End cpu dai driver already.
If fsl_asrc_dma requests dma chan with same dma:tx symlink, then
there will be below warning with SDMA.

[ 48.174236] fsl-esai-dai 2024000.esai: Cannot create DMA dma:tx symlink

or with EDMA the request operation will fail for EDMA channel
can only be requested once.

So If we can reuse the dma channel of Back-End, then the issue can be
fixed.

In order to get the dma channel which is already requested in Back-End.
we use the exported two functions (snd_soc_lookup_component_nolocked
and soc_component_to_pcm). If we can get the dma channel, then reuse it,
if can't, then request a new one.

Should we use substream_be->stream or just substream->stream?

And would be better to add these lines right before we really use
tmp_chan because there's still some distance till it reaches that
point. And would be better to have a line of comments too.

This is a bit confusing...though I finally got it :)
So probably better to have a line of comments.

This sounds like a different issue and should be fixed separately?
If you prefer not to, better to move this one to commit log, other
than having a changelog here, in my opinion.

Since it no longer uses get_dma_channel() for EDMA case, we should
update the comments at the top as well.

Why we only apply this to one direction?

I prefer to use the description "flag to release dev_to_dev chan"
because we won't release the dma chan of the back-end. if the chan
is from the back-end, it is owned by the back-end component.

substream_be->stream should be better.

ok, will move it in commit log.

if the chan is from the back-end, it is owned by the back-end
component, so it should be released by the back-end component,
not here. That's why I added the flag "req_dma_chan".

TBH, it just looks too long. But I wouldn't have problem if you
insist so.

Ah...I forgot the IN and OUT is for front-end and back-end. The
naming isn't very good indeed. Probably we should add a line of
comments somewhere as a reminder.
