Subject: [PATCH] fix possible NULL pointer dereference in scsi_scan.c
Date: Tue, 11 Mar 2003 20:12:27 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030311201227.A986@lst.de> (raw)

If the sdev allocation fails and q is non-null we could dereference
sdev->request_queue.  While at it reformat the function to use
goto-based cleanup - that's much easier to parse.
