commit 86a24e99c97234f87d9f70b528a691150e145197 upstream.
dma_request_slave_channel() may return NULL which will lead to
NULL pointer dereference error in 'tmp_chan->private'.
Correct this behaviour by, first, switching from deprecated function
dma_request_slave_channel() to dma_request_chan(). Secondly, enable
sanity check for the resuling value of dma_request_chan().
Also, fix description that follows the enacted changes and that
concerns the use of dma_request_slave_channel().
Fixes: 706e2c881158 ("ASoC: fsl_asrc_dma: Reuse the dma channel if available in Back-End")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
