If this has not been picked/merged yet (it's not in Linus' tree yet), could you please drop it because it's buggy? This would buy me time to come up with a proper solution, otherwise I would be forced to fix it within 4.15-rc and am not sure I can make it.

This means, we no longer always initialize the timer for any request type, but only for some request types. However, we still do have 2 unconditional del_timer() calls independent of the request type. I don't understand yet why I haven't seen the following on function testing, but I see it now while working on something else: [ 325.908536] scsi host2: scsi_eh_2: sleeping [ 325.908707] scsi host2: zfcp [ 325.912974] qdio: 0.0.1900 ZFCP on SC 11 using AI:1 QEBSM:1 PRI:1 TDD:1 SIGA: W A [ 331.112469] scsi 2:0:0:0: scsi scan: INQUIRY pass 1 length 36 [ 331.122253] ODEBUG: assert_init not available (active state 0) object type: timer_list hint: (null) [ 331.122319] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 331.122332] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2195 at lib/debugobjects.c:291 debug_print_object+0xb4/0xd8 [ 331.122339] Modules linked in: xt_CHECKSUM iptable_mangle ipt_MASQUERADE nf_nat_masquerade_ipv4 iptable_nat nf_nat_ipv4 nf_nat nf_conntrack_ipv4 nf_defrag_ipv4 xt_conntrack nf_conntrack ipt_REJECT nf_reject_ipv4 xt_tcpudp bridge stp llc ip6table_filter ip6_tables iptable_filter sunrpc qeth_l2 rng_core ghash_s390 prng aes_s390 des_s390 des_generic sha512_s390 zfcp sha256_s390 scsi_transport_fc sha1_s390 sha_common dm_multipath qeth qdio scsi_mod vmur ccwgroup dm_mod vhost_net tun vhost tap sch_fq_codel kvm ip_tables x_tables autofs4 [ 331.122503] CPU: 0 PID: 2195 Comm: chccwdev Not tainted 4.14.0localversion+ #1 [ 331.122510] Hardware name: IBM 2964 N96 702 (z/VM 6.4.0) [ 331.122518] task: 000000004c673200 task.stack: 000000005fdac000 [ 331.122599] Krnl PSW : 0704d00180000000 00000000007828cc (debug_print_object+0xb4/0xd8) [ 331.122693] R:0 T:1 IO:1 EX:1 Key:0 M:1 W:0 P:0 AS:3 CC:1 PM:0 RI:0 EA:3 [ 331.122748] Krnl GPRS: 0000200088a4a0f0 0000000080000100 0000000000000061 0000000000c215b6 [ 331.122753] 00000000007828c8 0000000000000000 0000000000c158da 000000004cf57200 [ 331.122766] 000000005e462548 000000000201d608 0000000000c65888 0000000000e8dc08 [ 331.122830] 000000006fbfb808 0000000000aac910 00000000007828c8 000000006fbfb708 [ 331.122843] Krnl Code: 00000000007828bc: c02000271779 larl %r2,c657ae 00000000007828c2: c0e5ffd25793 brasl %r14,1cd7e8 #00000000007828c8: a7f40001 brc 15,7828ca >00000000007828cc: c41d003655b4 lrl %r1,e4d434 00000000007828d2: e340f0e80004 lg %r4,232(%r15) 00000000007828d8: a71a0001 ahi %r1,1 00000000007828dc: eb6ff0a80004 lmg %r6,%r15,168(%r15) 00000000007828e2: c41f003655a9 strl %r1,e4d434 [ 331.123056] Call Trace: [ 331.123065] ([<00000000007828c8>] debug_print_object+0xb0/0xd8) [ 331.123074] [<0000000000783900>] debug_object_assert_init+0x148/0x180 [ 331.123085] [<00000000001e8e2c>] del_timer+0x34/0x90 [ 331.123106] [<000003ff8032fad2>] zfcp_fsf_req_complete+0x2b2/0x7a8 [zfcp] [ 331.123122] [<000003ff80331e2e>] zfcp_fsf_reqid_check+0xe6/0x150 [zfcp] [ 331.123151] [<000003ff80332be0>] zfcp_qdio_int_resp+0x138/0x180 [zfcp] [ 331.123167] [<000003ff801df19e>] qdio_kick_handler+0x1be/0x2c0 [qdio] [ 331.123178] [<000003ff801e1ca6>] __tiqdio_inbound_processing+0x466/0xd00 [qdio] [ 331.123191] [<000000000014f5e0>] tasklet_action+0x100/0x188 [ 331.123203] [<0000000000a56af2>] __do_softirq+0x2ca/0x5e0 [ 331.123215] [<000000000014ec24>] irq_exit+0x74/0xd8 [ 331.123228] [<000000000010c5c4>] do_IRQ+0xbc/0xf0 [ 331.123278] [<0000000000a55c2c>] io_int_handler+0x104/0x2d4 [ 331.123354] [<0000000000168ca6>] queue_work_on+0x8e/0xa8 [ 331.123393] ([<0000000000168ca2>] queue_work_on+0x8a/0xa8) [ 331.123443] [<000000000080a932>] pty_write+0x62/0x88 [ 331.123454] [<0000000000801c64>] n_tty_write+0x284/0x4b8 [ 331.123463] [<00000000007febb6>] tty_write+0x34e/0x378 [ 331.123473] [<0000000000386db4>] __vfs_write+0x3c/0x178 [ 331.123481] [<00000000003870dc>] vfs_write+0xbc/0x1a0 [ 331.123490] [<0000000000387366>] SyS_write+0x66/0xc0 [ 331.123501] [<0000000000a55900>] system_call+0x290/0x2b0 [ 331.123510] 4 locks held by chccwdev/2195: [ 331.123519] #0: (&tty->ldisc_sem){++++}, at: [<0000000000805dc6>] tty_ldisc_ref_wait+0x46/0x70 [ 331.123559] #1: (&tty->atomic_write_lock){+.+.}, at: [<00000000007fc798>] tty_write_lock+0x38/0x80 [ 331.123585] #2: (&o_tty->termios_rwsem/1){++++}, at: [<0000000000801a6e>] n_tty_write+0x8e/0x4b8 [ 331.123622] #3: (&ldata->output_lock){+.+.}, at: [<0000000000801b34>] n_tty_write+0x154/0x4b8 [ 331.123735] Last Breaking-Event-Address: [ 331.123742] [<00000000007828c8>] debug_print_object+0xb0/0xd8 [ 331.123750] ---[ end trace 5a8f0aa586510aed ]--- [ 331.123977] scsi 2:0:0:0: scsi scan: INQUIRY successful with code 0x0 [ 331.124031] scsi 2:0:0:0: scsi scan: INQUIRY pass 2 length 164 > At that point in time we also know the handler > function.
