[PATCH 4/5] SCSI: qla2xxx, fix NULL-ptr dereference

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Wed Sep 23 2009 - 10:15:37 EST


Stanse found a NULL-ptr dereference on one fail path in
qla25xx_create_rsp_que. It jumps to que_failed label and
qla25xx_free_rsp_que there dereferences rsp which is NULL.

Return with ENOMEM directly instead.
