The commit 48f17f96a817 ("soundwire: stream: fix memory leak in stream config error path") fixes the memory leak by implicitly freeing the s_rt object. However, this fixing style is not very good.
The better fix is to move list_add_tail before sdw_config_stream and revert the previous commit.

There some sanity checks on the stream inside sdw_config_stream() so that's probably why we didn't add it until later. (I don't know the code well, but that's what I would suspect from a glance).
I think those sanity checks are not much related to list_add_tail.
Except that, do you have other concerns?
I think this patch could improve the readability of code, so I submit this patch to the mailing list. But I am not sure if the community favors this kind of patch.
