3.16.7-ckt9 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai at suse.de>
commit be3bb8236db2d0fcd705062ae2e2a9d75131222f upstream.
There was no check about the id string of user control elements, so we
accepted even a control element with an empty string, which is
obviously bogus. This patch adds more sanity checks of id strings.
