snd_sb_qsound_destroy() contains the calls of removing the previously created mixer controls, but it doesn't clear the pointers. As snd_sb_qsound_destroy() itself may be repeatedly called via ioctl, this could lead to double-free potentially. Fix it by clearing the struct fields properly afterwards.
