Subject: scsi: mpt3sas: Fix for block device of raid exists even after deleting raid disk

From: Sreekanth Reddy <[email protected]>

commit 6d3a56ed098566bc83d6c2afa74b4199c12ea074 upstream.

While merging mpt3sas & mpt2sas code, we added the is_warpdrive check condition on the wrong line

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
scsih_target_alloc(struct scsi_target *starget)

                        sas_target_priv_data->handle = raid_device->handle;
                        sas_target_priv_data->sas_address = raid_device->wwid;
                        sas_target_priv_data->flags |= MPT_TARGET_FLAGS_VOLUME;
-                       raid_device->starget = starget;
+                       sas_target_priv_data->raid_device = raid_device;
+                       if (ioc->is_warpdrive)
+                               raid_device->starget = starget;
                }
                spin_unlock_irqrestore(&ioc->raid_device_lock, flags);
                return 0;

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That check should be for the line sas_target_priv_data->raid_device = raid_device;

Due to above hunk, we are not initializing raid_device's starget for raid volumes, and so during raid disk deletion driver is not calling scsi_remove_target() API as driver observes starget field of raid_device's structure as NULL.

Fixes 7786ab6aff9 ("mpt3sas: Ported WarpDrive product SSS6200 support")
