ALSA: control: Introduce snd_ctl_find_id_mixer()
A commonly seen pattern is to run snd_ctl_find_id() for a mixer control element with a given string. Let's provide a standard helper for achieving that for simplifying the code. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230720082108.31346-2-tiwai@suse.de Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
