[RFC PATCH v2 4/6] ASoC: soc-pcm: tweak DPCM BE hw_param() call order

For DPCM links, the order of hw_param() call depends on the sequence of
BE connection to FE. It is possible that one BE link can provide clock
to another BE link. In such cases consumer BE DAI, to get the rate set
by provider BE DAI, can use the standard clock functions only if provider
has already set the appropriate rate during its hw_param() stage.

Presently the order is fixed and does not depend on the provider and
consumer relationships. So the clock rates need to be known ahead of
hw_param() stage.

This patch tweaks the hw_param() order by connecting the provider BEs
late to a FE. With this hw_param() calls for provider BEs happen first
and then followed by consumer BEs. The consumers can use the standard
clk_get_rate() function to get the rate of the clock they depend on.

TODO:
* The FE link is not considered in this. For Tegra it is fine to
call hw_params() for FE at the end. But systems, which want to apply
this tweak for FE as well, have to extend this tweak to FE.
* Also only DPCM is considered here. If normal links require such
tweak, it needs to be extended.
