Hey, you don't get to do that ... I asked you to figure out why we're
missing an ahd_restore_modes().  Removing the ahd_save_modes() is
cosmetic: it gets rid of a warning but doesn't fix the problem.  I'd
rather keep the warning until the problem is fixed and the problem is
we need a mode save/restore around the ahd_set_modes() which is only
partially implemented in this function.

I had a look.  Traced it back to the dawn of time (time == Git), then
delved even further back by downloading and trawling through ~10-15
tarballs.  It looks as though drivers/scsi/aic7xxx/aic79xx_osm.c was
upstreamed in v2.5.60, nearly 20 years ago.  'saved_modes' has been
unused since at least then.  If no one has complained in 2 decades,
I'd say it probably isn't an issue worth perusing.

That's not really the point; this function is the first stage of error recovery. And the only real way of exercising this is to inject a command timeout, which is nearly impossible without dedicated hardware. So this function will have a very limited exposure, but nevertheless a quite crucial function. Hence I'm not quite agree with your reasoning, and rather would have it fixed. But as we're having an alternative fix now, it might be best if you could drop it from your patchset and we'll fix it separately.

Cheers,

Hannes
