Subject: Re: [smartpqi updates PATCH V2 05/11] smartpqi: add tur check for
sanitize operation
Dear Don,
Thank you for the patch. Maybe rephrase the summary:

Maybe add what TUR means: Test Unit Ready.

It’d be great, if you gave at least one concrete test setup, where the
hang occurred.

Use size_t? And could be made const?

I’d remove the dot/period at the end of the short comments.

As the variable is named `sense_data_length`, for an outsider like me,
it’s suprising that `response_date_length` is stored in there.

Should a error, warning, or debug message be printed, when
`sense_data_length = 0` again?

I’d use the positive `!pqi_get_device_online()`, but it’s subjective.
