Subject[PATCH] scsi: qla2xxx: Fix memory leaks in the error handling path of 'qla2x00_mem_alloc()'
Date
In case of memory allocation failure, we should release many things and
should not return directly.

The tricky part here, is that some (kzalloc + dma_pool_alloc) resources
are allocated and stored in 'unusable' and a 'good' list.
The 'good' list is then freed and only the 'unusable' list remains
allocated.
So, only this 'unusable' list is then freed in the error handling path of
the function.

So, instead of adding even more code in this already huge function, just
'continue' (as already done if dma_pool_alloc() fails) instead of
returning directly.

After the 'for' loop, we will then branch to the correct place of the
error handling path when another memory allocation will (likely) fail
afterward.

Certainly not the best solution, but look 'safe' to me.
