The snd_ctl_led_sysfs_add and snd_ctl_led_sysfs_remove should contain the refcount operations in pair. However, snd_ctl_led_sysfs_remove fails to decrease the refcount to zero, which causes device_release never to be invoked. This leads to memory leak to some resources, like struct device_private. In addition, we also free some other similar memory leaks in snd_ctl_led_init/snd_ctl_led_exit. Fix this by replacing device_del to device_unregister in snd_ctl_led_sysfs_remove/snd_ctl_led_init/snd_ctl_led_exit. Note that, when CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE is enabled, put_device will call kobject_release and delay the release of kobject, which will cause use-after-free when the memory backing the kobject is freed at once.
