Subject: [PATCH] scsi: megaraid: fix a possible double-free bug caused by incorrect error handling in megasas_alloc_cmdlist_fusion()

In megasas_alloc_cmdlist_fusion(), when kzalloc() fails, it frees
fusion->cmd_list but does not clear it. Then, the error is propagated to
its caller megasas_alloc_cmds_fusion(), which calls
megasas_free_cmds_fusion(). In megasas_free_cmds_fusion(), it frees
fusion->cmd_list again, which causes a double-free bug.

To fix this possible bug, in megasas_alloc_cmdlist_fusion(),
fusion->cmd_list should be cleared after it is freed.

The error log in our fault-injection testing is shown as follows:
