Did your patch fix the leak? Because my patch should have been
equivalent except for it fixes an additional leak in the snd_ctl_led_init()

"Already freed"? Is it a memleak or is it a double free??? I probably
should have read the syzbot email on this... But you didn't include
a link to it or a reported-by tag so I don't have a way to look at the
actual bug.
I did fix a bug, though... Just not the one from the report I guess.
Please send a link to the bug report so I can look at that. ;)
