The patch looks ok:

Reviewed-by: Mike Christie <michael.christie@xxxxxxxxxx>

Looks like there is another issue in this code path though. If
qedi_alloc_global_queues fails in qedi_set_iscsi_pf_param the err_alloc_mem
goto just ends up returning, so the p_cpuq allocation a couple lines before
the qedi_set_iscsi_pf_param call will be leaked.

The __qedi_probe call to qedi_set_iscsi_pf_param just frees the iscsi host,
so it won't be freed via a qedi_free_iscsi_pf_param later. So, I think
qedi_set_iscsi_pf_param's err_alloc_mem goto handler should free the p_cpuq.
