Subject: ASoC: rsnd: don't double free kctrl

From: Colin Ian King <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 0ea617a298dcdc2251b4e10f83ac3f3e627b66e3 ]

On an error, snd_ctl_add already free's kctrl, so calling snd_ctl_free_one to free it again leads to a double free error. Fix this by removing the extraneous snd_ctl_free_one call.
