Some external hard drives don't support the sync command even though the
hard drive has write cache enabled. In this case, upon suspend request,
sync cache failures are ignored if the error code in the sense header is
ILLEGAL_REQUEST. There's not much
This patch is dependent on:
'commit 25e78531268e ("ibmvscsis: Do not send aborted task response")'
This patch cleans up some pointers after usage.

I understand that the driver is in maintenance mode. However, the Linux

Local variable _ret_ is assigned to a constant value and it is never
updated again. Remove this variable and the dead code it guards.

When debugging a race condition in scsi_remove_target of 3.12, I ran into this
possible bug within scsi_alloc_target.
When an existing "struct scsi_target" is found and used, the starget just got
through kzmalloc should be freed, rather than dong a "put_device(dev)".

When copying attributes, the len argument was padded out and the resulting
memcpy() would copy beyond the end of the source buffer. Avoid this,
and use size_t for val_len to avoid all the casts. Similarly, avoid source
buffer casts and use void *.
Additionally enforces val_len can be represented
