Because of the shifting around of code in qla2x00_probe_one recently,
failures during adapter initialization can lead to problems, i.e. NULL
pointer crashes and doubly freed data structures which cause eventual
panics.
This V2 version makes the relevant memory free routines idempotent, so
repeat calls won't cause any harm. I also removed the problematic
probe_init_failed exit point as it is not needed.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
