ALSA: line6: Fix racy initialization of LINE6 MIDI
The initialization of MIDI devices that are found on some LINE6
drivers are currently done in a racy way; namely, the MIDI buffer
instance is allocated and initialized in each private_init callback
while the communication with the interface is already started via
line6_init_cap_control() call before that point. This may lead to
Oops in line6_data_received() when a spurious event is received, as
reported by syzkaller.
This patch moves the MIDI initialization to line6_init_cap_control()
as well instead of the too-lately-called private_init for avoiding the
race. Also this reduces slightly more lines, so it's a win-win
change.
