[PATCH] Sound, 6Fire USB: Fix double-free bug inusb6fire_fw_ezusb_upload()

[Jesper Juhl]

We have a double-free bug in 
sound/usb/6fire/firmware.c::usb6fire_fw_ezusb_upload().
We already call release_firmware(fw) on line 258, so when we then do it 
again after usb6fire_fw_ezusb_write() returns <0, we have a double-free.
Easily fixed by just removing the last call to release_firmware().
