KASAN reports a use-after-free:

It's bacause in snd_soc_init(), snd_soc_util_init() is possble to fail,
but its ret is ignored, which makes soc_dummy_dev unregistered twice.

snd_soc_init()
    snd_soc_util_init()
        platform_device_register_simple(soc_dummy_dev)
        platform_driver_register() # fail
    	platform_device_unregister(soc_dummy_dev)
    platform_driver_register() # success
...
snd_soc_exit()
    snd_soc_util_exit()
    # soc_dummy_dev will be unregistered for second time

To fix it, handle error and stop snd_soc_init() when util_init() fail.
Also clean debugfs when util_init() or driver_register() fail.
