From a39a98ff4cc8b514fe6fa551f6ed59cd60e07da2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Maninder Singh Date: Wed, 8 Jul 2015 09:43:35 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] IB/mlx4: Optimize freeing of items on error unwind On failure, we loop through all possible pointers and test them before calling kfree. But really, why even attempt to free items we didn't allocate when we can easily loop through exactly and only the devices for which the original memory allocation succeeded and free just those.
