[PATCH 4.9 104/119] ASoC: Fix use-after-free at card unregistration

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

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

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

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx>

commit 4efda5f2130da033aeedc5b3205569893b910de2 upstream.

soc_cleanup_card_resources() call snd_card_free() at the last of its
procedure. This turned out to lead to a use-after-free.
PCM runtimes have been already removed via soc_remove_pcm_runtimes(),
while it's dereferenced later in soc_pcm_free() called via
snd_card_free().

The fix is simple: just move the snd_card_free() call to the beginning
of the whole procedure. This also gives another benefit: it
guarantees that all operations have been shut down before actually
releasing the resources, which was racy until now.
