Linux Kernel Memory Leak Vulnerability in ASoC Codecs WCD937X

A memory leak vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel's ASoC codecs for WCD937X. The issue arises in the function 'wcd937x_soc_codec_probe()', which fails to release allocated memory for 'wcd937x->clsh_info' when 'snd_soc_dapm_new_controls()' or 'snd_soc_dapm_add_routes()' encounters an error. This oversight can lead to a potential memory leak.

Impact

Exploitation of this vulnerability could result in a memory leak, causing increased memory usage and potentially leading to memory exhaustion over time.
