Subject: [PATCH 3.16 060/217] mtip32xx: Remove unwanted code from taskfile
 error handler

3.16.35-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Asai Thambi SP <asamymuthupa@...ron.com>

commit e35b94738a2f7caa12017f69ef385cb6b8028965 upstream.

Remove setting and clearing MTIP_PF_EH_ACTIVE_BIT flag in
mtip_handle_tfe() as they are redundant. Also avoid waking
up service thread from mtip_handle_tfe() because it is
already woken up in case of taskfile error.
