In usX2Y_In04_init(), a new urb is firstly created through usb_alloc_urb() and saved to 'usX2Y->In04urb'. Then, a buffer is allocated through kmalloc() and saved to 'usX2Y->In04Buf'. After the urb is initialized, a sanity check is performed for the endpoint in the urb by invoking usb_urb_ep_type_check(). If the check fails, the error code EINVAL will be returned. In that case, however, the created urb and the allocated buffer are not freed, leading to memory leaks.
To fix the above issue, free the urb and the buffer if the check fails.

Applied now, thanks.
... and looking at the code again, this patch turned out to be wrong. The in04 urb and transfer buffer are freed at card->private_free callback (snd_usX2Y_card_private_free()) later, so this patch would lead to double-free.
I dropped the patch now.
thanks,
