For scsi devices supporting the Command Duration Limits feature set, the
user can enable/disable this feature use through the sysfs device
attribute cdl_enable. This attribute modification triggers a call to
scsi_cdl_enable() to enable and disable the feature for ATA devices and
set the scsi device cdl_enable field to the user provided bool value.
For SCSI devices supporting CDL, the feature set is always enabled and
scsi_cdl_enable() is reduced to setting the cdl_enable field.
However, for ATA devices, a drive may spin-up with the CDL feature
enabled by default. But the scsi device cdl_enable field is always
initialized to false (CDL disabled), regardless of the actual device
CDL feature state. For ATA devices managed by libata (or libsas),
libata-core always disables the CDL feature set when the device is
attached, thus syncing the state of the CDL feature on the device and of
the scsi device cdl_enable field. However, for ATA devices connected to
a SAS HBA, the CDL feature is not disabled on scan for ATA devices that
have this feature enabled by default, leading to an inconsistent state
of the feature on the device with the scsi device cdl_enable field.
Avoid this inconsistency by adding a call to scsi_cdl_enable() in
scsi_cdl_check() to make sure that the device-side state of the CDL
feature set always matches the scsi device cdl_enable field state.
This implies that CDL will always be disabled for ATA devices connected
to SAS HBAs, which is consistent with libata/libsas initialization of
the device.
