[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.]
