If the DAI format setup fails, there is no valid communication format
between CPU and CODEC, so fail card instantiation, rather than continue
with a card that will most likely not function properly.

I've had the problem of a sound card coming up even though an incorrect 
DAI format was selected in the devicetree, apparently caused by not 
checking the return value of snd_soc_runtime_set_dai_fmt() when the card 
is instantiated, with the result in this particular case that that the 
audio data was not transferred correctly (capture data was shifted one bit 
up).

I'm unsure though if this is intentional, I can't think why it should be, 
since the DAI format is only set up at this time and not for instance 
later when a stream is enabled, but perhaps I'm missing something here.

At any rate, with this patch, the card does not come up under these 
circumstances. The error message from snd_soc_runtime_set_dai_fmt() is 
still printed to the kernel log so it's possible to see what the reason 
is.
