snd_microii_spdif_default_get() invokes snd_usb_lock_shutdown(), which increases the refcount of the snd_usb_audio object "chip".
When snd_microii_spdif_default_get() returns, local variable "chip" becomes invalid, so the refcount should be decreased to keep refcount balanced.
The reference counting issue happens in several exception handling paths of snd_microii_spdif_default_get(). When those error scenarios occur such as usb_ifnum_to_if() returns NULL, the function forgets to decrease the refcnt increased by snd_usb_lock_shutdown(), causing a refcnt leak.
Fix this issue by jumping to "end" label when those error scenarios occur.
