The snd_soc_dapm_sync is just a wrapper for dapm_power_widgets, right?
It (snd_soc_dapm_sync) is used in soc-core:soc_post_component_init.
But there is no need for it, since the snd_soc_dapm_new_widgets will
call dapm_power_widgets at the end. so we can remove the
snd_soc_dapm_sync from there.
For the rest:
I would replace the snd_soc_dapm_sync calls in soc-dapm.c with
dapm_power_widgets(dapm, SND_SOC_DAPM_STREAM_NOP); calls.
Modify the snd_soc_dapm_sync to use the codec->mutex around the
dapm_power_widgets call.
In that way I think all race conditions going to be covered without
adding new mutex.
What do you think?
I can make a patch...
