The chip array entries are all populated and removed while under the
register_mutex, so going over your race condition, we should see:

Thread#1:
q6usb_component_probe()
--> snd_soc_usb_add_port()
--> snd_usb_rediscover_devices()
--> mutex_lock(register_mutex)

Thread#2
--> usb_audio_disconnect()
--> mutex_lock(register_mutex)

So either thread#1 or thread#2 will complete first. If

Thread#1 completes before thread#2:
SOC USB will notify DPCM backend of the device connection. Shortly
after, once thread#2 runs, we will get a disconnect event for the
connected device.

Thread#2 completes before thread#1:
Then during snd_usb_rediscover_devices() we won't notify of any
connection for that particular chip index.

Thanks
Wesley Cheng
