Subject: [PATCH v3] scsi: fc: check for rport presence in fc_block_scsi_eh

Coverity-scan recently found a possible NULL pointer dereference in
fc_block_scsi_eh() as starget_to_rport() either returns the rport for
the startget or NULL.

While it is rather unlikely to have fc_block_scsi_eh() called without
an rport associated it's a good idea to catch potential misuses of the
API gracefully.

Martin, I'm not sure if I have already sent it out or not if I already did
send this v3 please ignore it.

Changes since v2:
- return FAST_IO_FAIL instead of 0 (Steffen)

Changes since v1:
- s/WARN_ON/WARN_ON_ONCE/ (Bart)
