The fixes look correct, but since we can unconditionally call kfree()
for NULL, both error paths can be unified as:

for (i = 0; i < PCM_N_URBS; i++)
kfree(rt->out_urbs[i].buffer);
kfree(rt);

and this would be better to be put in the common path at the end and
do "goto error" or such from both places.


BTW, your patch doesn't seem cleanly applicable in anyway because the
tabs are converted to spaces. Please check the mail setup.

Also, please try to make the subject line more unique. This is about
hiface driver, so "ALSA: hiface: xxx" should be more appropriate.


thanks,

Takashi
