SubjectRe: [PATCH] scsi: megaraid_mm: Fix end of loop tests for list_for_each_entry
From
Date

Kashyap,

> The list_for_each_entry() iterator, "adapter" in this code, can never be
> NULL. If we exit the loop without finding the correct adapter then
> "adapter" points invalid memory that is an offset from the list head.
> This will eventually lead to memory corruption and presumably a kernel
> crash.

Please review. Thanks!
