From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 16 Nov 2017 11:22:26 +0100 The function "release_firmware" is called in the current implementation of the function "_request_firmware" after a failure was detected. Link: https://elixir.free-electrons.com/linux/v4.14-rc8/source/drivers/base/firmware_class.c#L1196 Such a call should therefore not be repeated directly after the corresponding error information was received in the local variable "err" of the function "snd_korg1212_create". Thus remove a misplaced function call.
