[PATCH 3.16 057/158] scsi_transport_srp: Fix fast_io_fail_tmo=dev_loss_tmo=off behavior

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 15 2014 - 17:00:11 EST


3.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@xxxxxxx>

commit cd53eb686d2418eda938aad3c9da42b7dfa9351f upstream.

If scsi_remove_host() is called while an rport is in the blocked state
then scsi_remove_host() will only finish if the rport is unblocked
from inside a timer function. Make sure that an rport only enters the
blocked state if a timer will be started that will unblock it. This
avoids that unloading the ib_srp kernel module after having
disconnected the initiator from the target system results in a
deadlock if both the fast_io_fail_tmo and dev_loss_tmo parameters have
been set to "off".
