If you're going to depend on the FC_ATTRS then you don't need all of
the 

#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SCSI_FC_ATTRS)

In the driver, because you're never building without it.  I thought
those were put in to satisfy Hannes' request that the driver be
buildable without the attributes?

Oh, right, the line should read

depends on m || SCSI_FC_ATTRS != m

for that case.
