Subject: ALSA: line6: Fix missing initialization before error path

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

commit cb02ffc76a53b5ea751b79b8d4f4d180e5868475 upstream.

The error path in podhd_init() tries to clear the pending timer, while
the timer object is initialized at the end of init sequence, thus it
may hit the uninitialized object, as spotted by syzkaller:

  INFO: trying to register non-static key.
  the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation.
  turning off the locking correctness validator.

   ....

For addressing it, assure the initializations of timer and work by
moving them to the beginning of podhd_init().
