The use of the locked boolean variable to control locking and unlocking
of the qc_lock of struct sdebug_queue confuses sparse, leading to a
warning about an unexpected unlock. Simplify the qc_lock lock/unlock
handling code of this function to avoid this warning by removing the
locked boolean variable.

The original logic is wrong or the above line is wrong. find_next_bit() is not
called on the first iteration in the original, but it is with this patch.

See that comment on the line above? That is the reason for the guard variable.
Defying that comment, the modified code does a superfluous spinlock irqsave
and irqrestore.

Sparse could be taken as a comment on the amount of grey matter that tool has.

Locking issues are extremely difficult to analyze via a unified diff of
the function. A copy of the original function is required to make any
sense of it.

Good catch. Indeed I should not have touched that. Will fix this in V2.

It does, and I should have removed the comment. Without this extra lock/unlock,
I could not find a way to shut-up sparse. Do you think this is too much of an
overhead ?

> Sparse could be taken as a comment on the amount of grey matter that tool has.

When it comes to conditional locking, most of the time, sparse does not get it
and generates warnings. In this case, I tried the acquire/release annotations,
but the loop+locked variable are too much for sparse.

I really would like to suppress *all* sparse warnings in scsi. There are way too
many right now, which makes this tool nearly useless as new warnings get drowned
in the sea of old ones...

Sorry, but I do not understand what you are trying to say here...

Rechecking this, there is one point that is bothering me: is it OK to have the
find_first_bit() outside of the sqp lock ? If not, then this is a bug and the
extra lock/unlock that my patch add is a fix...

I think you are correct, please fix it.
You will notice that when the spinlock_irq is dropped to call scsi_done(),
that the iteration is restarted.

I was trying to say: it is difficult to understand what diff style output
of a change as shown in a [PATCH] post like this, especially to a function's
locking, will do, without see the __whole__ function.

It is not a criticism of this patchset, but the process in general which loses
important context of the function being patched.
