[PATCH] [SCSI] libsas: remove expander from dev list on error
From: Luben Tuikov
Date: Tue Jul 26 2011 - 23:15:26 EST
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.
