[PATCH] libata: replace ap_lock w/ ap->lock in ata_scsi_error()
ap_lock was used because &ap->host_set->lock was too long and used a lot. Now that &ap->host_set->lock is replaced with ap->lock, there's no reason to keep ap_lock. [ed. note: that's not entirely true. ap_lock is a local variable, caching the results of a de-ref. In theory, if the compiler is smart enough, this patch is cosmetic. However, since this is not a fast path (it is the error path), this patch is nonetheless acceptable, even though it _may_ introduce a performance regression.] Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <htejun@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
