snd_soc_unregister_component() takes the parent device of the component as a
parameter and then looks up the component based on this. This is a problem if
multiple components are registered for the same parent device. Currently drivers
do not do this, but some drivers register a CPU DAI component and a platform for
the same parent device. This will become a problem once platforms are also made
components. To make sure that snd_soc_unregister_component() will not
accidentally unregister the platform in such a case only consider components
that were registered with snd_soc_register_component(). This is only meant as
short term stopgap solution to be able to continue componentisation. Long term
we'll need something different.

Do we have any thoughts on what might be a longer term solution
here? Is the parent device actually the right thing to pass to
snd_soc_unregister_component, it feels like that is probably not
going to be enough to accurately identify the component?

Thanks,
Charles

It's not clear to me that in the longer term it makes sense for anything
that is a single struct device to be registering multiple components in
the first place.  In the short term we register things separately so it
makes sense to continue to support that to ease transition but it's not
clear to me that it's a good idea.

My plan is to let it take a pointer to the component itself. I'm just not 
too sure about the implementation details yet.

The question there is why you'd ever want to only unregister a single
thing that the device registered.  devm_ does make this a bit more
academic but still.

I you probably wouldn't, but I think it makes the interface cleaner and devm 
doesn't really care whether we store a pointer to the parent device or a 
pointer to the component in the devm data.

Yes, of course the other bit is not wanting to register multiple
components in the first place (partly for this reason).
