[PATCH] nvme-fc: fix double free of fabrics options when nvme_add_ctrl() fails

Hello,

Thanks for the suggestion.

I am not sure whether that would work, and I may well be missing
something.  From what I could tell, nvme_tcp_create_ctrl() does its
list_add_tail() last, while nvme_fc_init_ctrl() does it before the
nvme_change_ctrl_state() and queue_delayed_work() checks, so on those two
failure paths the controller is already on the list and opts would end up
freed twice again.  The early goto would also skip the ida_free(),
put_device() and nvme_fc_rport_put() for what nvme_fc_alloc_ctrl() takes
before the list_add.

I am not familiar with this driver either, so please correct me if I have
misread it.

Keith suggested moving the existing clear from fail_ctrl: down to
out_put_ctrl: instead, so I will send that as v2.

Thanks,
Rihyeon
