drivers/message/fusion/ is obviously buggy.

mptsas_probe() does

                sh = scsi_host_alloc(...);
                if (!sh) {
                        ...
                        goto out_mptsas_probe;
                }
                ...
        out_mptsas_probe:
                mptscsih_remove(pdev);

and mptscsih_remove() blindly calls scsi_remove_host(ioc->sh) but ->sh
was not initialized, probably it is NULL.

and scsi_remove_host(host) obviously assumes that this pointer is valid.

I think we should wait for maintainers.

Oleg.
