RE: [PATCH] mpt3sas - remove unused fw_event_work delayed_work

[Sathya Prakash Veerichetty <sathya.prakash@broadcom.com>]

Chaitra,
I think you are looking for the patch "mpt2sas: [Resend] Host Reset code
cleanup".
Joe,
The initial drivers for SAS2 controller's handle firmware reset using the
rescan barrier and later we redesigned it through the above patch.  I hope
it clarifies, please let us know if you are looking for additional details?

Thanks
Sathya

Joe ,
 The below mentioned patch is an older patch, verified latest code also the
code before merging(mpt2sas & mpt3sas) didn't find changes of below patch.
So I am searching for the patch which has removed the functionality/changes
of the below patch.

I shall get back to you on this by Monday.

Thanks,
 Chaitra
