Coverity-scan recently found a possible NULL pointer dereference in fc_block_scsi_eh() as starget_to_rport() either returns the rport for the startget or NULL. While it is rather unlikely to have fc_block_scsi_eh() called without an rport associated it's a good idea to catch potential misuses of the API gracefully.
