fsl_asoc_card_probe() hard-fails with -EINVAL when the CPU DAI (SAI)
platform device is not found. Like the codec, the CPU DAI may just be
probed later than the machine driver; the order is not guaranteed and
varies across kernel versions, so a permanent -EINVAL leaves the card
unregistered with no analog playback or capture.
Defer probe instead, mirroring commit
e396dec46c56 ("ASoC:
fsl-asoc-card: Defer probe when fail to find codec device").
Tested on i.MX8MP with an ALC5672 on SAI3: the card that failed to
register on v6.18 now comes up during boot.
