This patch sent before the patch 4abbd2e3c1db applied. I will rebase it
in the next version.

OK, I will seperate it.

Oh, I see. The code here should be:

rc = smc_listen_ism_init(new_smc, ini);
if (!rc)
    return;
smc_find_device_store_rc(rc, ini);

not_found:
    ini->smcd_version &= ~SMC_V1;
    ini->ism_dev[0] = NULL;
    ini->is_smcd = false;


Thanks,
