Subject: Re: [PATCH] mpt2sas: mpt3sas: Fix memory corruption during initialization

HI Tomas & Calvin,

Thanks for reviewing this patch.

There is some problem with this patch, In this patch as the driver is
ignoring the device removal event (when ioc's
discovered_device_addition_on flag and device's
is_on_sas_device_init_list is one) so driver not freeing the
sas_device structure from the sas_device_init_list list.

Due to this when ever same device is hot plugged then the device
addition to the SML is not happing.

I have one more patch to fix the original issue and I will post it today.

Regards,
Sreekanth
