Hello, Josh!

Actually, there are 3 commits related: 0f886ca1, 902eb7fd and 447d6275f (many thanks to Takashi Iwai), all in upstream already, the missing is 902eb7fd.

Unfortunately, these do not fix all the bugs in [snd-usb-audio], please, see the research and the patch for remaining (i hope) double-free bug in:

Yes, but that was simply a cleanup patch without any functional change.  That's why it wasn't brought in originally.

Takashi's patch here:

http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2016-March/106350.html

seems sufficient, yes?  Though as he noted, it does require the cleanup commit for backporting, but only to make it easier to apply.

> Takashi's patch here: seems sufficient, yes?

heh, no.
there are still double-free bugs even with this patch. please, see:

Good catch.  I'll keep an eye on the thread and bring in whatever patch Takashi says he'll merge.  Thanks!
