ALSA: pcm: Fix memory leak at closing a stream without hw_free
ALSA PCM core recently introduced a new managed PCM buffer allocation mode that does allocate / free automatically at hw_params and hw_free. However, it overlooked the code path directly calling hw_free PCM ops at releasing the PCM substream, and it may result in a memory leak as spotted by syzkaller when no buffer preallocation is used (e.g. vmalloc buffer). This patch papers over it with a slight refactoring. The hw_free ops call and relevant tasks are unified in a new helper function, and call it from both places.
