[PATCH 3/3 v5] alsa-lib: fixed coverity reported issues under "USE_AFTER_FREE" checker.

[sudarshan.bisht]

From: Sudarshan Bisht <sudarshan.bisht@nokia.com>

Coverity Static Analysis helps developers find hard-to-spot,
yet potentially crash-causing defects early in the development phase,
reducing the cost,time, and risk of software errors.

This patch has a fix for conditions where 1) variable is used
evern after getting freed thus causing junk assignment and 2) double
free of memory.
