[alsa-devel] [PATCH] ASoC: rsnd: don't double free kctrl

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king at canonical.com>

On an error, snd_ctl_add already free's kctrl, so calling snd_ctl_free_one
to free it again leads to a double free error.  Fix this by removing
the extraneous snd_ctl_free_one call.

Issue found using static analysis with CoverityScan, CID 1372908
