    ASoC: Intel: Boards: Fix NULL pointer deref in BYT/CHT boards harder · 0cc65482

    Since commit 13f58267 ("ASoC: soc.h: don't create dummy Component
    via COMP_DUMMY()") dummy codecs declared like this:
    
    SND_SOC_DAILINK_DEF(dummy,
            DAILINK_COMP_ARRAY(COMP_DUMMY()));
    
    expand to:
    
    static struct snd_soc_dai_link_component dummy[] = {
    };
    
    Which means that dummy is a zero sized array and thus dais[i].codecs should
    not be dereferenced *at all* since it points to the address of the next
    variable stored in the data section as the "dummy" variable has an address
    but no size, so even dereferencing dais[0] is already an out of bounds
    array reference.
    
    Which means that the if (dais[i].codecs->name) check added in
    commit 7d99a70b ("ASoC: Intel: Boards: Fix NULL pointer deref
    in BYT/CHT boards") relies on that the part of the next variable which
    the name member maps to just happens to be NULL.
    
    Which apparently so far it usually is, except when it isn't
    and then it results in crashes like this one:
    
    [   28.795659] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000000000030011
    ...
    [   28.795780] Call Trace:

    ...
    [   28.795979]  ? __pfx_init_module+0x10/0x10 [snd_soc_sst_bytcr_wm5102]
    
    Really fix things this time around by checking dais.num_codecs != 0.
