[23/50] [SCSI] libsas: remove expander from dev list on error

From: Greg KH
Date: Fri Aug 05 2011 - 20:19:08 EST


2.6.33-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Luben Tuikov <ltuikov@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 5911e963d3718e306bcac387b83e259aa4228896 upstream.

If expander discovery fails (sas_discover_expander()), remove the
expander from the port device list (sas_ex_discover_expander()),
before freeing it. Else the list is corrupted and, e.g., when we
attempt to send SMP commands to other devices, the kernel oopses.
