Was this patch tested? Even the normal path falls through the cleanup label and obviously you should not be freeing the stor_device in that case. I have patches queued up to cleanup some of the unnecessary labels and meaningless return values that I will be sending soon.

This could be cleaned up much better; we don't need to additional labels. As I said, earlier, I have patches queued up for this and a whole lot more. I will add your name to the patch that fixes this issue.
