After a successful 'NCR_700_detect()' call, 'NCR_700_release()' must be
called to release some DMA related resources, as already done in the
remove function.

Hi,

please note that this patch is speculative
All the drivers I've look at don't call NCR_700_release in the error handling path of the probe. They only do in the remove function.
So it is likely that this patch is wrong and that the truth is elsewhere.

'scsi_host_put()' is used in the probe and 'scsi_remove_host()' in the remove function. That maybe is the trick, but I've not been able to see how NCR_700_release (or equivalent) was called in this case.

So review with care!
