[PATCH] scsi: dc395x: fix null-ptr-dereference in adapter_uninit

From: Tong Zhang
Date: Sun Mar 21 2021 - 14:01:37 EST


dcb_list is initialized in adapter_init_params(). When it is not
initialized, calling adapter_uninit() from dc395x_init_one() can cause
null-ptr-dereference. We can set acb to NULL and skip adapter_uninit()
alltogether if adapter_init() returns non zero, since adapter_init()
will handle its own unwinding without the help of adapter_uninit().
