But why not just delete the code?

buf = transport_kmap_data_sg(cmd);
/* XXX: TCM_LOGICAL_UNIT_COMMUNICATION_FAILURE */

I mean, this seems like a real warning here. We're not actually
handling the failure to allocate 'buf'. It's not marked as __must_check,
but watch the code flow:

buf = transport_kmap_data_sg(cmd);
if (!buf)
; /* XXX: TCM_LOGICAL_UNIT_COMMUNICATION_FAILURE */

if (cdb[0] == MODE_SENSE_10) {
if (!(buf[3] & 0x80))
buf[3] |= 0x80;
} else {
if (!(buf[2] & 0x80))
buf[2] |= 0x80;
}

we're about to do a NULL ptr dereference. So this should be handled
somehow.
