ASoC: Remove locking in snd_soc_{new,free}_ac97_codec() snd_soc_new_ac97_codec() and snd_soc_free_ac97_codec() are called from within a CODEC's probe() and remove() callbacks. Those will not run concurrently against each other for the same CODEC instance, hence it is not necessary to protect the two functions with a mutex. This removes the last user in the ASoC core of the snd_soc_codec mutex field and will allow us to eventually remove it.
