Do you know why CPU DAI is not registered by the time snow machine
driver gets probed? Did you try to debug the I2S driver? Does perhaps
deferring happen due to some I2S clocks missing? DMA seems to be
already initialized.
The deferral loop looks suspicious, do you perhaps know what commits
in v4.8 cause such changes in probing order? Did you start to use
some drivers as loadable module?

As far as the error log is concerned, I would just not print anything
in snow_probe() when register_card() returns EPROBE_DEFER.
