ALSA: ppc: keywest: check if DEQ was already instantiated

Due to changes in i2c-powermac, for some Macs the DEQ is instantiated
now in i2c-powermac while some need the instantiation here in the
keywest sound driver. The proper fix is to convert this driver to AOA.
Until then support both ways of instantiation. Before this patch, some
Macs lost sound because the sound driver failed when instantiating the
DEQ for the second time.

$ git describe 28760c195e22856aedbacad5eb7b46ac1d76bb90
v4.1-rc3-151-g28760c195e2285

So, this commit IS upstream since v4.2. If you don't have sound, this is
probably due to another issue.
