[PATCH 1/2] scsi: mpi3mr: Fix NULL pointer dereference in mpi3mr_sas_port_add()

"Milan P. Gandhi" <[email protected]>
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.linux-scsi,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel
Message-ID <[email protected]>
sas_port_alloc_num() can return NULL on memory allocation failure. The
return value is passed directly to sas_port_add() without a NULL check,
which causes a NULL pointer dereference.

Additionally, if sas_port_add() fails, the allocated port is not freed
before jumping to out_fail, leaking the sas_port structure. Call
sas_port_free() to properly release it.

Fixes: e22bae30667a ("scsi: mpi3mr: Add expander devices to STL")
