Creates a new info entry and assigns it to the given card.
Unlike <code class="function">snd_info_create_card_entry</code>, this function registers the
info entry as an ALSA device component, so that it can be
unregistered/released without explicit call.
Also, you don't have to register this entry via <code class="function">snd_info_register</code>,
since this will be registered by <code class="function">snd_card_register</code> automatically.
</p><p>
The parent is assumed as card->proc_root.
</p><p>
For releasing this entry, use <code class="function">snd_device_free</code> instead of
<code class="function">snd_info_free_entry</code>.
</p><p>
Returns zero if successful, or a negative error code on failure.
