ALSA: jack: Fix endless loop at unique index detection
While the commit [d0a601c278de: ALSA: jack: Fix the id uniqueness check] fixes the wrong string check, it leads to a worse result -- the loop in get_available_index() goes into an endless loop. The cause is that snd_ctl_find_id() returns the object assigned to the numid if it's set. Thus it points to the previous entry again. This patch clears the numid field for the next call properly.
