Subject: [PATCH] Revert "qed: fix possible unpaired spin_{un}lock_bh in _qed_mcp_cmd_and_union()"

This reverts commit 2d2f5ded858a4f4659fc63e01dd55605598a8f05.

That patch added additional spin_{un}lock_bh(), which was harmless
but pointless. The orginal code path has guaranteed the pair of
spin_{un}lock_bh().

We'd better revert it before we find the exact root cause of the
bug_on mentioned in that patch.
