The patch

   ASoC: topology: avoid uninitialized kcontrol_type

has been applied to the asoc tree at

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing

Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: topology: avoid uninitialized kcontrol_type

When num_kcontrols is zero, widget->dobj.widget.kcontrol_type
gets set to an uninitialized local variable:

sound/soc/soc-topology.c: In function 'soc_tplg_dapm_widget_create':
sound/soc/soc-topology.c:1566:36: error: 'kcontrol_type' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

I could not figure out which of the valid types would be appropriate
here, so this sets it to '0', which is invalid but at least well-defined
here. There is probably a better way to address the issue.
