ALSA: echoaudio - Eliminate use after free
Use the call to snd_card_free in the error handling code at the end of the function, as in the other error cases. A simplified version of the semantic patch that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @@ expression E,E2; @@ snd_card_free(E) ... ( E = E2 | * E ) // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>
