Richard Fitzgerald 135e3ad353 firmware: cs_dsp: Don't allow writes to read-only controls
[ Upstream commit 62412a9357 ]

Add a check to cs_dsp_coeff_write_ctrl() to abort if the control
is not writeable.

The cs_dsp code originated as an ASoC driver (wm_adsp) where all
controls were exported as ALSA controls. It relied on ALSA to
enforce the read-only permission. Now that the code has been
separated from ALSA/ASoC it must perform its own permission check.

This isn't currently causing any problems so there shouldn't be any
need to backport this. If the client of cs_dsp exposes the control as
an ALSA control, it should set permissions on that ALSA control to
protect it. The few uses of cs_dsp_coeff_write_ctrl() inside drivers
are for writable controls.
