[PATCH] sound/isa/sb/emu8000: Fix a use after free in snd_emu8000_create_mixer

[Lv Yunlong]

Our code analyzer reported a uaf.

In snd_emu8000_create_mixer, the callee snd_ctl_add(..,emu->controls[i])
calls snd_ctl_add_replace(.., kcontrol,..). Inside snd_ctl_add_replace(),
if error happens, kcontrol will be freed by snd_ctl_free_one(kcontrol).
Then emu->controls[i] points to a freed memory, and the execution comes
to __error branch of snd_emu8000_create_mixer. The freed emu->controls[i]
is used in snd_ctl_remove(card, emu->controls[i]).

My patch set emu->controls[i] to NULL if snd_ctl_add() failed to avoid
the uaf.
