From: Asai Thambi S P <asamymuthupa@micron.com>

Removed the following:
	* irrelevant argument 'barrier' of mtip_hw_submit_io()
	* unused member 'eh_active' of struct driver_data

Signed-off-by: Asai Thambi S P <asamymuthupa@micron.com>
Signed-off-by: Sam Bradshaw <sbradshaw@micron.com>
Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
(cherry picked from commit 4e8670e26135d8fbfd5e084fddc1a8ed9f8eb4cb)

From the merge:

  - Killing the barrier part of mtip32xx.  It doesn't really support
    barriers, and it doesn't need them (writes are fully ordered).

Follow on from mtip32xx support that was added in 3.2.0-13.22.
I have compile tested.

Does this have an actual impact on driver performance or functionality ?

Side channel information indicates that this patch has no impact on
functionality or performance, and therefore does not fix a bug making it
unsuitable as a stable update.
