The patch again forgot about the proper error handling...
This will leave the mutex unbalanced.
Please be careful when writing this kind of fix at the next time.
Many code paths require the proper error handling, e.g. freeing the
rest memory or unlock/lock something.
In this particular case, snd_gf1_mem_lock(alloc, 1) is needed at the
first chunk.
And, the easiest way to fix would be to have a NULL check in
snd_gf1_mem_xalloc(). Then that will cover all callers by once.
thanks,
