OK, so Hannes made me look at this again:
Actually, there is a problem here ... and the original code doesn't pick
it up. We could still be recursing unacceptably because the fc login
interrupt can come in while we're running the block queue, but if it's
not the rport queue (which it likely won't be) we won't see the
recursion.
The actual solution is not to run the queue directly from the interrupt
at all (and dink with the REENTER) flags, but simply to use the
kblockd_schedule_work() API to cause the queue to be run in workqueue
context. Redo the patch like that and I'll apply it.
