Subject: [PATCH] scsi/virio_scsi.c: do not call virtscsi_remove_vqs() in virtscsi_init() to avoid crash bug
Date: Thu, 23 Aug 2018 10:24:58 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5B7E1AFA.8030506@huawei.com> (raw)

If some error happened before find_vqs, error branch will goto
virtscsi_remove_vqs to free vqs. Actually the vqs have not been allocated
successfully, so this will cause wild-pointer-free problem. So
virtscsi_remove_vqs could be deleted as no error will happen after
find_vqs.
