Subject: [PATCH] scsi: hisi_sas: Add a missing call to kfree

Most error branches following the call to hisi_sas_shost_alloc contain
a call to kfree. This patch add these calls where they are
missing.

This issue was found with Hector.

I think that this patch is fine. However I have noticed that we should
do a call to hisi_sas_free() for this failure, and later failures in the
probe.

I can generate a patch for this.

Cheers,
John

I don't understand why, and would welcome the opportunity to learn
something.

We call hisi_sas_alloc() from hisi_sas_shost_alloc(); if we fail after
this in hisi_sas_probe(), then we should free the memmories and
workqueue got in hisi_sas_alloc(), which we don't.

Thanks,
John

Thanks.
Are you writing the patch or do you want me to do it?
