Subject: [patch] [SCSI] qla4xxx: don't free pool that wasn't allocated
Date: Thu, 17 May 2012 07:11:20 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120517071120.GG14660@elgon.mountain> (raw)

In the original code if dma_pool_alloc() fails then we call
dma_pool_free().  The problem is that "chap_table" is NULL and
"chap_dma" is uninitialized so it will cause an error.
