Because the pcm is created by my i2s bus driver (which knows it can only
have one pcm per i2s bus).

Then once codecs are discovered, they attach, and the streams are
created.

Right now it's even more broken requiring me to create both the playback
and capture stream without knowing if there's anything on the bus that
can handle it.
