ASoC: dapm: fix a memory leak bug
In snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked(), a kernel buffer is allocated in dapm_cnew_widget() to hold the new dapm widget. Then, different actions are taken according to the id of the widget, i.e., 'w->id'. If any failure occurs during this process, snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked() should be terminated by going to the 'request_failed' label. However, the allocated kernel buffer is not freed on this code path, leading to a memory leak bug. To fix the above issue, free the buffer before returning from snd_soc_dapm_new_control_unlocked() through the 'request_failed' label.
