This is provoked when the ASoC front end is open along with its backend,
(which causes the backend to have a runtime assigned to it) and then the
SNDRV_CTL_IOCTL_PCM_INFO is requested for the (visible) backend device.

Resolve this by ensuring that ASoC internal backend devices are not
visible to userspace, just as the commentry for snd_pcm_new_internal()
says it should be.
