From: Nicholas Bellinger <nab@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Following the the great host lock push-down in 3039f3ffcc5, this patch drops the historical optimization (and most certain deadlock) of: spin_unlock_irq(host_lock); do_some_lld_work(); spin_lock_irq(host_lock) from within tcm_loop_queuecommand() Signed-off-by: Nicholas A.
