The above 2 sentences are redundant IMO.
There is no error handling in the callee so it can't be repeated. We 
just return error in the callee.
The first sentence is good enough to justify this patch.

Lets have instead:

"Merge its code with the only caller nvmf_host_add() since both are 
small enough.
The lockdep check in __nvmf_host_find() after the merge becomes 
redundant so we can remove it too."

With the updated commit message,

The code looks good to me,
