This is a small helper function to handle the error path more easily when an error happens during the probe for the device with the device-managed card. Since devres releases in the reverser order of the creations, usually snd_card_free() gets called at the last in the probe error path unless it already reached snd_card_register() calls. Due to this nature, when a driver expects the resource releases in card->private_free, this might be called too lately.
As a workaround, one should call the probe like:
static int __some_probe(...) { // do real probe.... }
static int some_probe(...) { return snd_card_free_on_error(dev, __some_probe(dev, ...)); }
so that the snd_card_free() is called explicitly at the beginning of the error path from the probe.
This function will be used in the upcoming fixes to address the regressions by devres usages.
