Commit 16ae9dd35d37 ("scsi: aacraid: Fix for excessive prints on EEH") introduced checks about the state of device before any PCI operations in the driver. Basically, this prevents it to perform PCI accesses when device is in the process of recover from a PCI error. In PowerPC, such mechanism is called EEH, and the aforementioned commit introduced checks that are based on EEH-specific primitives for that. The potential problems with this approach are three: first, these checks are "locked" to powerpc only - another archs could have error recovery methods too, like AER in Intel. Also, the powerpc primitives perform expensive FW accesses to validate the precise PCI state of a device. Finally, code becomes more complicated and needs ifdef validation based on arch config being set. So, this patch makes use of generic PCI state checks, which are lightweight and non-dependent of arch configs - also, it makes the code cleaner. Signed-off-by: Guilherme G.
