sound: Fix esoteric double free in the dummy sound driver.
The dummy driver uses runtime->private_free but still frees its pcm structures on error paths. This is esoteric because the error paths in question are unreachable. Thus the bug is only a problem when someone copies this code into other drivers. Signed-off-by: Daniel R Thompson <daniel.thompson@st.com> Signed-off-by: Jaroslav Kysela <perex@perex.cz>
