From: Xiyu Yang <xiyuyang19@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 36124fb19f1ae68a500cd76a76d40c6e81bee346 ] fsl_asrc_dma_hw_params() invokes dma_request_channel() or fsl_asrc_get_dma_channel(), which returns a reference of the specified dma_chan object to "pair->dma_chan[dir]" with increased refcnt. The reference counting issue happens in one exception handling path of fsl_asrc_dma_hw_params(). When config DMA channel failed for Back-End, the function forgets to decrease the refcnt increased by dma_request_channel() or fsl_asrc_get_dma_channel(), causing a refcnt leak. Fix this issue by calling dma_release_channel() when config DMA channel failed.
