Subject: [PATCH 4.9 10/44] ALSA: oxfw: fix memory leak for model-dependent data at error path

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

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

From: Takashi Sakamoto <o-takashi@...amocchi.jp>

commit ce925f088b979537f22f9e05eb923ef9822ca139 upstream.

After allocating model-dependent data, ALSA OXFW driver has memory leak
of the data at error path.

This commit releases the data at the error path.
