From: Markus Elfring <elfring@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 27 Dec 2023 10:23:09 +0100 The kfree() function was called in one case by the mptsas_find_phyinfo_by_phys_disk_num() function during error handling even if the passed variable contained a null pointer. This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software. 1. Thus use another label. 2. Delete an initialisation for the variable “phys_disk” which became unnecessary with this refactoring.
