interrupt handling to the Intel AVS driver.

[Severity: Medium]
Does returning early when avs_dsp_first_boot_firmware() or
avs_sdw_startup() fails leave the SoundWire auxiliary link devices
registered while the DSP and links are powered down?
avs_sdw_probe() registers the soundwire_intel.link.* auxiliary devices and
sets adev->sdw before firmware boot. If avs_dsp_first_boot_firmware() or
avs_sdw_startup() fails, the links are never powered up via
sdw_intel_startup() and runtime PM is not enabled. A later
avs_pci_remove() then runs avs_sdw_exit() -> sdw_intel_exit() ->
intel_link_remove(), which calls sdw_cdns_enable_interrupt(cdns, false) and
writes to unpowered link MMIO registers.

[Severity: High]
Can avs_cnl_dsp_interrupt() dereference adev->sdw after avs_sdw_exit()
frees it?
avs_sdw_exit() calls sdw_intel_exit(adev->sdw), which frees the
sdw_intel_ctx and its link structures, without clearing adev->sdw and
before SoundWire and DSP interrupts are disabled or freed via
pci_free_irq():
CPU0 CPU1
avs_pci_remove()
avs_sdw_exit(adev)
sdw_intel_exit(adev->sdw)
...
kfree(ctx)
avs_dsp_irq_thread()
avs_cnl_dsp_interrupt()
if (adev->sdw)
avs_sdw_thread(irq, adev)
sdw_intel_thread(irq, adev->sdw)
<-- use-after-free
Disabling SoundWire and DSP interrupts (and synchronizing the IRQ or moving
avs_sdw_exit() after pci_free_irq()) before tearing down adev->sdw, and
clearing adev->sdw in avs_sdw_exit(), would avoid this.
