pulseaudio gradually using more memory, maybe leaking

I have been running pavucontrol for quite some time and I notice that
pulseaudio has slowly been hoarding memory, now being almost on a par
with Firefox. I find that absurd for a daemon process.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 728901] Re: pulseaudio gradually using more memory, maybe leaking
Given that you have Realtek hardware, perhaps this patch from the
upstream 3.4 kernel will fix the problem:
author Jesper Juhl
Thu, 12 Apr 2012 20:11:25 + (22:11 +0200)
committer Takashi Iwai
Fri, 13 Apr 2012 05:35:57 + (07:35 +0200)
commit 7d7eb9ea314e992413620610b4d09c9cd5fa8959
tree159a2cc18ad80868af18d7a0675a940c457e1536
parent 29ebe40284c75a5888c601872059fca7e258528d
ALSA: hda/realtek - Fix mem leak (and rid us of trailing whitespace).
In sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c::alc_auto_fill_dac_nids(), in the
'for (;;)' loop, if the 'badness' value returned from
fill_and_eval_dacs() is negative, then we'll return from the function
without freeing the memory we allocated for 'best_cfg', thus leaking.
Fix the leak by kfree()'ing the memory when badness is negative.
While I was there I also noticed some trailing whitespace in the
function that I removed (along with all other trailing whitespace in
the file) - it didn't seem worth-while to do that as two patches, so I
hope it's OK that I just did it all as one patch.

The upcoming Ubuntu 12.10 Qantal Quetzal is based on the upstream 3.5
kernel and thus should include this patch.
