If the driver fails to allocate the contiguous (DMAable) memory for system reasons, we fail to load the instance, but then we try to free the <nul> allocation in the cleanup code and we get a panic in pci_free_consistent(). This is reported against an older kernel, hope this is relevant for latest/greatest. This attached patch is against current scsi-misc-2.6. ObligatoryDisclaimer: Please accept my condolences regarding Outlook's handling of patch attachments.
