Thanks for the patch you sent,

maybe it is even better if I modify bnx2fc_allocate_hash_table() in such a way
that, in case of error, it frees all the memory it has allocated.

Note that your patch does not free the table if
"hba->hash_tbl_pbl = dma_alloc_coherent(...)" fails (line 2058).

It just requires a very little change to your patch, I'll send it tomorrow.

Maurizio Lombardi
