commit aa73aec6c385e2c797ac25cc7ccf0318031de7c8 upstream.

When a driver module is unloaded and the last still open file is a raw
MIDI device, the card and its devices will be actually freed in the
snd_card_file_remove() call when that file is closed.  Afterwards, rmidi
and rmidi->card point into freed memory, so the module pointer is likely
to be garbage.
(This was introduced by commit 9a1b64caac82aa02cb74587ffc798e6f42c6170a.)
