[PATCH] Fix a memory leak in pdaudiocf

[Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@gmail.com>]

There's a potential memory leak in 
sound/pcmcia/pdaudiocf/pdaudiocf.c::pdacf_config()

If we leave via one of the *failed: labels we may leak 'parse', so add a 
kfree(parse) to the end of the function and also make sure to set 'parse' 
to NULL after the kfree() call a little further up so we don't do a 
double-free of the pointer if we hit one of the *failed: labels after the 
first kfree().

Since I don't have the hardware I can't test the patch beyond making sure 
it compiles cleanly, but I feel pretty confident that it is correct.

Please consider for inclusion.
