From 9dfe1cc36be27040144238d30da05053db71beb1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christof Schmitt Date: Mon, 19 May 2008 12:17:38 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] [SCSI] zfcp: Fix mempool pointer for GID_PN request allocation When allocating memory for GID_PN nameserver requests, the allocation function stores the pointer to the mempool, but then overwrites the pointer via memset. Later, the wrong function to free the memory will be called, since this is based on the stored pointer. Fix this by first initializing the struct and then storing the pointer.
