[PATCH] scsi: csiostor: remove 'state' parameter from csio_do_hello()

At the single call site, the 'state' parameter holds the address of the
'hw->fw_state' field. However, the csio_do_hello() also receives a
pointer to 'hw', so use that field directly to avoid unnecessary pointer
check.

Detected by Smatch:
drivers/scsi/csiostor/csio_hw.c:1007 csio_do_hello()
	warn: variable dereferenced before check 'state' (see line 954)
