ASoC: SDCA: fix NULL pointer dereference in sdca_dev_unregister_functions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ASoC: SDCA: fix NULL pointer dereference in sdca_dev_unregister_functions

sdca_dev_unregister_functions() iterates over all SDCA function
descriptors and calls sdca_dev_unregister() on each func_dev without
checking for NULL. When a function registration has failed partway
through, or the device cleanup races with probe deferral, func_dev
entries may be NULL, leading to a kernel oops:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000040
  RIP: 0010:device_del+0x1e/0x3e0
  Call Trace:

This was observed on a Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon G14 (Panther Lake)
with the SOF audio driver probe failing due to missing Panther Lake
firmware, causing the subsequent cleanup of SoundWire devices to
trigger the crash.

Fix this with three changes:

1) Add a NULL guard in sdca_dev_unregister() so that callers do not
   need to pre-validate the pointer (defense in depth).

2) In sdca_dev_unregister_functions(), skip NULL func_dev entries
   and clear func_dev to NULL after unregistration, making the
   function idempotent and safe against double-invocation.

3) In sdca_dev_register_functions(), roll back all previously
   registered functions when a later one fails, so the function
   array is never left in a partially-populated state.
