Subject: [PATCH 93/93] snd_pcm_link(): fix a leak...

3.5.7.15 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Al Viro <viro@...iv.linux.org.uk>

commit dd6c5cd8fedddc9605209098e2fa4e82c7af22aa upstream.

in case when snd_pcm_stream_linked(substream) is true, we end up leaking
group.
