This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: qla2xxx: fix Null ptr dereference in fail path in queue create code
From: Anirban Chakraborty <anirban.chakraborty@qlogic.com>

Current code jumps to fail path in queue create functions and there it
invokes the queue free call with a (NULL) pointer to the queue which could
not be allocated.  Fix it by returning ENOMEM directly without invoking
the queue free call.
