sound_kunit.c: error: address of array 'card->id' will always evaluate to 'true' [-Werror,-Wpointer-bool-conversion]

[Naresh Kamboju]

Regressions on x86_64 build allyesconfig with clang-20 failed on the
Linux next-20250408 tag.

First seen on the next-20250408.
Bad: next-20250408
Good: next-20250407

* x86, build
 - build/clang-20-allyesconfig

Regression Analysis:
- New regression? Yes
- Reproducibility? Yes

Boot regression: x86_64 allyesconfig address of array 'card->id' will
always evaluate to 'true'
