[alsa-devel] [PATCH 2/3] ASoC: wm0010: fix memory leak

We have requested for the firmware but we have missed releasing it both
on success and on error path.
While checking the code it turned out that the requested firmware is not
even used. More over the same firmware is being loaded by
wm0010_stage2_load().
