The original patch changed kcontrol_type to a pointer. In some goto
cases the pointer is assigned into a struct member as uninitialized and
this will cause a runtime error with UBSan even if it isn't a real bug.
So initialize the pointer to NULL.

[1/1] ASoC: topology: Fix using uninitialized pointer
      commit: b9c035aa43b8c074b3bcfdaaa8bea2537d85b7c3

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
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
