Apparently we can de-duplicate code in scsi_eh_reset()/scsi_eh_action(),
and change less of sd_eh_action() (i.e., no new parameter).

Something like this.  Thoughts?


- Deduplicate code in scsi_eh_reset() and scsi_eh_action()
   - A call to scsi_eh_reset() with reset == false calls into eh_action()

   - A call to scsi_eh_reset() with reset == true returns early,
     (as happens with/if sd_eh_action() is called in your patch)

   - A call to scsi_eh_reset() in scsi_eh_scmd_add() uses SUCCESS just
     for consistency with scsi_eh_reset() in your patch, as the return
     value is ignored in it.

- Less changes to sd_eh_action()
   - Removed one chunk in sd_eh_action() ('reset gate variable')
   - No more parameter changes in sd_eh_action() (no 'reset' parameter)

- Removed forward declaration of scsi_eh_reset(), as already suggested



static int scsi_eh_reset(struct scsi_cmnd *scmd, int eh_disp, bool reset)
{
	int rtn = eh_disp;

	if (!blk_rq_is_passthrough(scmd->request)) {
		struct scsi_driver *sdrv = scsi_cmd_to_driver(scmd);
		if (sdrv->eh_action) {
			if (reset) {
			 	struct scsi_disk *sdkp = scsi_disk(scmd->request->rq_disk);

				/* New SCSI EH run, reset gate variable */
				sdkp->medium_access_reset = 0;
				return rtn;
			}
			rtn = sdrv->eh_action(scmd, rtn);
		}
  	}
  	return rtn;
}

Plus,

Nope.

This is assuming that we're always running on a scsi_disk, and that
scsi_disk is the only one implementing 'eh_action'.
Neither of which is necessarily true.

Cheers,

Ah, OK. Thanks for explaining.

And the rest, without the 'reset' parameter.
