3.16.7-ckt20 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: =?UTF-8?q?D=C4=81vis=20Mos=C4=81ns?= <davispuh@xxxxxxxxx> commit 2280521719e81919283b82902ac24058f87dfc1b upstream. When pci_pool_alloc fails in mvs_task_prep then task->lldd_task stays NULL but it's later used in mvs_abort_task as slot which is passed to mvs_slot_task_free causing NULL pointer dereference. Just return from mvs_slot_task_free when passed with NULL slot.
