This commit fixes the following warning when building virtio_snd driver.

"

299      * @snd: VirtIO sound device.
"

This warning is caused by the absence of the "default" branch in the
switch-block, and is a false positive because the kernel calls
virtsnd_kctl_tlv_op() only with values for op_flag processed in
this block.

Also, this commit unifies the cleanup path for all possible control
paths in the callback function.
