Minimally, just looking at this one snippet, by returning after the 
mempool_alloc() failure, we are leaking the dd_data memory just allocated.

and this leaks both the dd_data and pmboxq memory.

all of these errors should cause:
   lpfc_bsg_write_ebuf_set() to return -Exxx
   causing lpfc_bsg_handle_sli_cfg_ebuf() to return -Exxx
   causing lpfc_bsg_handle_sli_cfg_ext() to return -Exxx
   which causes lpfc_bsg_issue_mbox() to jump to job_done

I understand the argument is that issue_mbox deletes them, but....

job_done:
   checks/frees pmboxq is allocated after the jump so it will be NULL
   frees dmabuf - which was allocated prior to the jump; is freed
      in freedlpfc_bsg_handle_sli_cfg_ebuf() but only in a block
      that returns SLI_CONFIG_HANDLED, which is not the block that
      invokes lpfc_bsg_write_ebuf_set. So it's valid to delete.
      Note: there's a special case for SLI_CONFIG_HANDLED which skips
      over these deletes so it's ok.
   frees dd_data - which is allocated after the jump so it too will
      be NULL

So - the code is fine.  The SLI_CONFIG_HANDLED is a little weird, but 
the logic is fine. If the patch were added it would leak memory.

I take it this was identified by some tool ?
