Here we need to pass NULL as the parent in the AC'97 mode as the original
code did, because otherwise snd_soc_find_dai() will assume that the AC'97
CODEC platform device has the same DT node as the SSI (the CODEC isn't
present in the DT on its own) and so when asked for SSI by its DT node
will return the CODEC instead.

The end result is a NULL pointer dereference when starting a playback.
