Subject: [PATCH 4.4 028/117] ALSA: usb-audio: avoid freeing umidi object twice

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

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

From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@...il.com>

commit 07d86ca93db7e5cdf4743564d98292042ec21af7 upstream.

The 'umidi' object will be free'd on the error path by snd_usbmidi_free()
when tearing down the rawmidi interface. So we shouldn't try to free it
in snd_usbmidi_create() after having registered the rawmidi interface.

Found by KASAN.
