azx_codec_configure() loops over the codecs found on the given
controller via a linked list. The code used to work in the past, but
in the current version, this may lead to an endless loop when a codec
binding returns an error.
The culprit is that the snd_hda_codec_configure() unregisters the
device upon error, and this eventually deletes the given codec object
from the bus. Since the list is initialized via list_del_init(), the
next object points to the same device itself. This behavior change
was introduced at splitting the HD-audio code code, and forgotten to
adapt it here.
For fixing this bug, just use a *_safe() version of list iteration.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
