create_midi2_ump() registers a card-owned snd_ump_endpoint and stores a
back-pointer to its per-interface snd_usb_midi2_ump object in
ump->private_data, but it never installs an ump->private_free hook and
never clears that pointer.

If a later step of snd_usb_midi_v2_create() fails, its error path calls
free_all_midi2_umps(), which kfree()s the snd_usb_midi2_ump object while
the already-registered endpoint keeps pointing at it.  The created
/dev/snd/umpC*D* node stays exposed, so the first operation of any UMP
open, ump_to_endpoint(), dereferences the dangling ump->private_data and
reads rmidi->eps[dir] out of freed memory.

A malicious USB MIDI 2.0 device that makes creation fail after the
endpoint is registered can thus trigger a slab use-after-free read on a
subsequent open of the UMP node.

Clear the endpoint's back-pointer before freeing the object, and let
ump_to_endpoint() tolerate a NULL private_data so the open/close/trigger
callbacks fail cleanly (their callers already handle a NULL endpoint)
instead of dereferencing a stale pointer.
