The code to try to shut up sparse warnings about questionable locking
didn't shut up sparse: it made the result not parse as valid C at all,
since the end result now has a label with no statement.
The proper fix is to just always lock the hardware, the same way Bart
did in commit 8ae178760b23 ("scsi: qla2xxx: Simplify the functions for
dumping firmware"). That avoids the whole problem with having locking
that is not statically obvious.
But in the meantime, just remove the incorrect attempt at trying to
avoid a sparse warning that just made things worse.
This was exposed by commit 3e6efab865ac ("scsi: qla2xxx: Fix reset of
MPI firmware"), very similarly to how commit cbb01c2f2f63 ("scsi:
qla2xxx: Fix MPI failure AEN (8200) handling") exposed the same problem
in another place, and caused that commit 8ae178760b23.
Please don't add code to just shut up sparse without actually fixing
what sparse complains about.

Overview
This is the source code repository of the SCST project. SCST is a collection of Linux kernel drivers that implement SCSI target functionality. The SCST project includes:
- The SCST core in the scst/ subdirectory.
- A tool for loading, saving and modifying the SCST configuration in directory scstadmin/.
- Several SCSI target drivers in the directories iscsi-scst/, qla2x00t/, srpt/, scst_local/ and fcst/.
- User space programs in the usr/ subdirectory, e.g. fileio_tgt.
- Various documentation in the doc/ subdirectory.
Instructions for building and installing SCST are available in the INSTALL.md file.
QLogic target driver
Two QLogic target drivers are included in the SCST project. The driver in the qla2x00t directory is a very stable driver that supports up to 16 Gb/s adapters. It is very stable, well tested and actively used in many production setups.
There is also a newer driver that supports 32 Gb/s FC in the qla2x00t-32gbit directory. That driver has not yet reached the same maturity level as the old qla2x00t driver.
