mempool_destroy()/kmem_cache_destroy() is OK to accept NULL pointer.
But the logic is more readable that we do NULL check when cleanup due to error.

cleanup_sdb:
        for (i = 0; i < SG_MEMPOOL_NR; i++) {
                struct sg_pool *sgp = sg_pools + i;
                if (sgp->pool)
                        mempool_destroy(sgp->pool);
                if (sgp->slab)
                        kmem_cache_destroy(sgp->slab);
        }

I'll keep the NULL check if no objection.

Thanks.
