A recent bug fix added code that does

This looks wrong because we are comparing a boolean with an
integer constant, ang gcc warns about it accordingly:

drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_target.c: In function 'qlt_do_ctio_completion':
drivers/scsi/qla2xxx/qla_target.c:3587:20: warning: comparison of constant '41' with boolean expression is always false [-Wbool-compare]
         (logged_out == CTIO_PORT_LOGGED_OUT) ?

The correct fix is presumably to make that variable an 'int'.

Hello Arnd,

Please read the e-mail thread that is available at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.scsi/108899/focus=108943. That thread namely makes it clear that the above patch is not the proper way to fix that code.

Thanks,

Bart.
