What's not clear in your reply is this:

What codec registers are accessed as a result of the machine driver
probe and card registration, and in what part of the card registration?

Are we talking about SoundWire 'standard' registers for device/port
management, about vendor specific ones that are exposed to userspace, or
vendor-specific ones entirely configured by the driver/regmap.

You've got to give us more data or understanding of the sequence to
help. Saying there's a race condition doesn't really help if there's
nothing that explains what codec registers are accessed and when.
