[alsa-devel] [PATCH v3] ALSA: hiface: fix multiple memory leak bugs

In hiface_pcm_init(), 'rt' is firstly allocated through kzalloc(). Later
on, hiface_pcm_init_urb() is invoked to initialize 'rt->out_urbs[i]'. In
hiface_pcm_init_urb(), 'rt->out_urbs[i].buffer' is allocated through
kzalloc().  However, if hiface_pcm_init_urb() fails, both 'rt' and
'rt->out_urbs[i].buffer' are not deallocated, leading to memory leak bugs.
Also, 'rt->out_urbs[i].buffer' is not deallocated if snd_pcm_new() fails.

To fix the above issues, free 'rt' and 'rt->out_urbs[i].buffer'.
