Subject[PATCH 5.19 026/207] ALSA: core: Fix double-free at snd_card_new()
Date
From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

commit c3afa2a402d1ecefa59f88d55d9e765f52f75bd9 upstream.

During the code change to add the support for devres-managed card
instance, we put an explicit kfree(card) call at the error path in
snd_card_new(). This is needed for the early error path before the
card is initialized with the device, but is rather superfluous and
causes a double-free at the error path after the card instance is
initialized, as the destructor of the card object already contains a
kfree() call.

This patch fixes the double-free situation by removing the superfluous
kfree(). Meanwhile we need to call kfree() explicitly for the early
error path, so it's added there instead.

Fixes: e8ad415b7a55 ("ALSA: core: Add managed card creation")
