    Reduce sequential pointer derefs in scsi_error.c and reduce size as well · 0bf8c869

    This patch reduces the number of sequential pointer derefs in
    drivers/scsi/scsi_error.c
    
    This has been submitted a number of times over a couple of years.  I
    believe this version adresses all comments it has gathered over time.
    Please apply or reject with a reason.
    
    The benefits are:
    
     - makes the code easier to read.  Lots of sequential derefs of the same
       pointers is not easy on the eye.
    
     - theoretically at least, just dereferencing the pointers once can
       allow the compiler to generally slightly faster code, so in theory
       this could also be a micro speed optimization.
    
     - reduces size of object file (tiny effect: on x86-64, in at least one
       configuration, the text size decreased from 9439 bytes to 9400)
    
     - removes some pointless (mostly trailing) whitespace.
