[SCSI] fix up scsi_eh_lock_door()
The Documentation is incorrect (we removed some functions referred to), and none of the bug warnings now apply. Additionally remove the spurious check on the return from blk_get_request() which can't fail if __GFP_WAIT is passed in. Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>
