In __snd_usbmidi_create(), a MIDI streaming interface structure is allocated through kzalloc() and the pointer is saved to 'umidi'. Later on, the endpoint structures are created by invoking snd_usbmidi_create_endpoints_midiman() or snd_usbmidi_create_endpoints(), depending on the type of the audio quirk type. However, if the creation fails, the allocated 'umidi' is not deallocated, leading to a memory leak bug.
To fix the above issue, free 'umidi' before returning the error.
