From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This patch converts scsi_dispatch_cmd() to no longer lock() + unlock() struct Scsi_Host->host_lock while calling scsi_cmd_get_serial() and SHT->queuecommand() dispatcher. This patch follows commit 5900e428420d which means we can now safely call scsi_cmd_get_serial() without the host_lock held. Signed-off-by: Nicholas A.
