firmware: cs_dsp: Don't use __free() in cs_dsp_load() and cs_dsp_load_coeff()
[ Upstream commit ae9ccaed3f6701ee0fe40ad919516e0aa0844f21 ] Replace the __free(kfree) in cs_dsp_load() and cs_dsp_load_coeff() with a kfree(buf) at the end of the function. The use of __free() can create new cleanup bugs that are difficult to spot because the defective code is idiomatically correct regular C. In these two functions the __free() was mixed with gotos, and also used the suspect declaration __free(kfree) = NULL;. The __free() did not do anything to simplify the code. There aren't any early returns after the pointer is set, and the __free() can be replaced by a kfree() at the end of the function.
