kmemleak issues in alsa

[Jaswinder Singh Rajput <jaswinder@kernel.org>]

I was getting these kmemleak reports when I build SND_SEQUENCER in
kernel :

But when I build SND_SEQUENCER as module these kmemleak issues
disappear.

Then I noticed that issue was in ordering. 

When build in kernel flow is like this :

OSS sequencer(alsa_seq_oss_init) -> System (snd_seq_system_client_init)

When build as modules flow is like this :

System(snd_seq_system_client_init) -> OSS sequencer(alsa_seq_oss_init)

So this fixes above kmemleak issues in my case, I hope it will be
helpful :
