[ Upstream commit 2b23d9509fd7174b362482cf5f3b5f9a2265bc33 ]
The intend purpose here was to goto out if smp_execute_task() returned error. Obviously something got screwed up. We will never get these link error statistics below:
~:/sys/class/sas_phy/phy-1:0:12 # cat invalid_dword_count 0 ~:/sys/class/sas_phy/phy-1:0:12 # cat running_disparity_error_count 0 ~:/sys/class/sas_phy/phy-1:0:12 # cat loss_of_dword_sync_count 0 ~:/sys/class/sas_phy/phy-1:0:12 # cat phy_reset_problem_count 0
Obviously we should goto error handler if smp_execute_task() returns non-zero.
