Subject: Re: [PATCH V3 2/2] scsi: qla2xxx: Optimisation of exception handling
 in qla24xx_els_dcmd_iocb

Would you like to use the summary phrase “Use common error handling code in qla24xx_els_dcmd_iocb()”?

How do you think about the following wording?

   Add a jump target so that a bit of exception handling can be better reused
   at the end of this function implementation.

Can the tag “Suggested-by” be helpful for an improved change description?
