Subject: [PATCH] cciss: fix incorrect scsi status reporting

From: Stephen M. Cameron <scameron@...rdog.cce.hp.com>

Delete code which sets SCSI status incorrectly as it's already
been set correctly above this incorrect code.  Bug was introduced
by b0e15f6db1110319cb2e747e59e1200450a5ba3e
"cciss: fix typo that causes scsi status to be lost." in 2009.
