Subject: [PATCH] scsi: qla2xxx: Re-use existing error handling path

There is no need to duplicate some code, use the existing error handling
path to free some resources.
This is more future-proof.

The code above this hunk looks spurious to me.

It looks like an error handling path (i.e.
"if (response_len > bsg_job->reply_payload.payload_len)")
but returns 0, which is the initial value of 'ret'.

Shouldn't we have ret = -<something> here?

Hmm ... if I read that code path correctly it is on purpose that that
code path returns 0 and error reporting happens by reporting the
EXT_STATUS_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL error code to user space.

Since the above looks good to me:

Applied to 5.13/scsi-queue, thanks!
