However I have noticed that we should do a call to hisi_sas_free() for

I don't understand why, and would welcome the opportunity to learn
something.


We call hisi_sas_alloc() from hisi_sas_shost_alloc(); if we fail after this in hisi_sas_probe(), then we should free the memmories and workqueue got in hisi_sas_alloc(), which we don't.
Thanks.
Are you writing the patch or do you want me to do it?
