In srpt_queue_response(), the rdma channel ch is first
dereferenced and then checked for NULL. This renders the
assertion ineffective. This patch removes the assertion and
avoids potential NULL pointer dereference.

Instead of making all these changes, please remove the BUG_ON(!ch) 
statement. If the condition ioctx->ch == NULL would ever be encountered 
then the call trace reported on the console will be sufficient to figure 
out what happened.

Thanks,
