Subject: drivers: scsi: storvsc: Correctly handle TEST_UNIT_READY failure

From: "K. Y. Srinivasan" <[email protected]>

commit 3533f8603d28b77c62d75ec899449a99bc6b77a1 upstream.

On some Windows hosts on FC SANs, TEST_UNIT_READY can return SRB_STATUS_ERROR.
Correctly handle this. Note that there is sufficient sense information to
support scsi error handling even in this case.
