Sameer Pujar 0332fd555e ASoC: tegra: fix sound card dependency
There is GVS intermittency where few audio tests fail because there is
no APE sound card available. The card registration itself does not
happen because there is kernel data abort and following dump is seen:

This seems to happen because mixer control override driver has the
dependency over the sound card and this dependency check is incorrect.
The attempt is made to register override controls before the sound card
is fully ready.

One option is to use 'card->instantiated' flag to add the dependency.
However this flag update is protected by card mutext and client_mutex
which is local to the core. So this flag check does not appear fully
reliable.

As a safer option, the override device is made child of sound device.
This way the probe order is ensured and override probe happens only
after a successful sound probe. This requires a change in machine driver
to allow probe() happen for child devices. This may be a concern during
usage of upstream machine driver which does not have provision for child
device probing. For now unblock the upstream AHUB usage by using this
safe option and investigate the best option to make the override driver
independent.
