When patch_ops.init, patch_ops.build_pcms and patch_ops.build_controls return failure, we need to free resource with patch_ops.free, or we will get resource leak.

I don't know whether this new patch is ok for you, but I think that we could allocate resources in patch_ops.init, patch_ops.build_pcms and patch_ops.build_controls separately, so I think it isn't flexible and elegant to free all resources in all the error path cases in them separately, so maybe it is better to use patch_ops.free as the unique point to release all resource.

In that case, it'll be easier to do that in hda_bind.c as your first patch, but skip the free for patch() call; i.e. something like below. The point is that the codec probe function does already care about the free at its error path, while others don't do generically.

Or, for safety, we may put an internal flag to indicate that the codec free got already called, and check it at before calling patch_ops.free, too.

thanks,

Takashi
