For future reference, this is less stylistically acceptable C: you've
reduced the if clause to a single statement, so the braces need
removing.
However, I don't think we should be ignoring the fact that the eh thread
failed to spawn, so I think some type of printed warning (giving the
error code) would be a much more appropriate replacement.
James
o.k. I'll give a try at that.. as a test I did this(below) seemed to
compile clean, but not sure if this is what you're asking for though:

Erm, well, as I said, error code and the fact that the thread failed to
start, so more
printk(KERN_WARNING "scsi%d: error handler thread failed to spawn, error
= %d\n", host->host_no, PTR_ERR(shost->ehandler));

yeah I figured the printk needed more. I was more concerned with making
sure this is what you are asking for(which looks like it is).
So I added your printk but ended up getting an undeclared error:
CC drivers/scsi/hosts.o
drivers/scsi/hosts.c: In function 'scsi_host_alloc':
drivers/scsi/hosts.c:422:85: error: 'host' undeclared (first use in this
function)
drivers/scsi/hosts.c:422:85: note: each undeclared identifier is
reported only once for each function it appears in
make[2]: *** [drivers/scsi/hosts.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [drivers/scsi] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2
I do see a
shost->host_no
but using this seems to not satisfy the compiler:
drivers/scsi/hosts.c: In function 'scsi_host_alloc':
drivers/scsi/hosts.c:422:3: warning: format '%d' expects type 'int', but
argument 3 has type 'long int'
I guess it's safe to say my newbieness is getting my a** kicked with
code(all part of the learning experience..)
