[PATCH 1/2] ASoC: sound: atmel: ac97c: Fix IRQ handler null pointer dereference

In atmel_ac97c_probe(), request_irq() is called before ioremap().
If an interrupt fires immediately, the handler atmel_ac97c_interrupt()
will attempt to dereference chip->regs via ac97c_readl(), leading to
a null pointer dereference and kernel panic.

Move request_irq() to the end of the probe function, after memory
is mapped and clocks are enabled, ensuring the hardware is fully
ready before interrupts are serviced.

Running make W=1 returns no errors. I was unable to test the patch
because I do not have the hardware. The issue was flagged by the
Sashiko AI bot.
