[PATCH] sound: fix hang in mpu401_uart.c
This fixes a hang in mpu401_uart.c that can occur when the mpu401 interface is non-existent or otherwise doesn't respond to commands but we issue IO anyway. snd_mpu401_uart_cmd now returns an error code that is passed up the stack so that an open() will fail immediately in such cases. Eventually discovered after wine/cxoffice would constantly cause hard lockups on my desktop immediately after loading (emulating Windows too well). Turned out that I'd recently moved my sound cards around and using /dev/sequencer now talks to a sound card with a broken MPU. This second version changes -EFAULT to -EIO and frees open resources on error too. Test booted and seems to work ok.
