Static analysis reports that 'handle' may be a user controlled value that is used as a data dependency to read 'sp' from the 'req->outstanding_cmds' array. In order to avoid potential leaks of kernel memory values, block speculative execution of the instruction stream that could issue reads based on an invalid value of 'sp'. In this case 'sp' is directly dereferenced later in the function. Based on an original patch by Elena Reshetova. Cc: qla2xxx-upstream@xxxxxxxxxx Cc: "James E.J.
