[PATCH] scsi: zorro7xx: put SCSI host on remove

From: Guangshuo Li

Date: Fri Sep 18 2026 - 14:04:28 EST


zorro7xx_init_one() obtains a SCSI host through NCR_700_detect(). The
probe failure path drops the host reference with scsi_host_put(), but
the normal remove path does not perform the corresponding cleanup.

As a result, the SCSI host reference remains allocated after the
device is removed.

Call scsi_host_put() after all users of the SCSI host have been torn
down to release the reference acquired during probe.

This issue was found by manual code inspection.
