A previous change added NULL checks and cleanup for allocation
failures in sma1307_setting_loaded().

However, the cleanup for mode_set entries is wrong. Those entries are
allocated with devm_kzalloc(), so they are device-managed resources and
must not be freed with kfree(). Manually freeing them in the error path
can lead to a double free when devres later releases the same memory.

Drop the manual kfree() loop and let devres handle the cleanup.

v2:
  - Replace kfree() with devm_kfree() for mode_set[] error cleanup.
  - Clear released mode_set[] pointers after devm_kfree().

[1/1] ASoC: sma1307: fix double free of devm_kzalloc() memory
      https://git.kernel.org/broonie/misc/c/fe757092d232

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
