From: Webb Scales <webbnh@xxxxxx> There is a possibility of deadlock if we use the system work queue for command resubmission since something in the queue may be depending on the I/O that gets resubmitted, and the resubmitted I/O will be behind the thing that depends on it in the queue. Using a driver specific, per-controller work queue avoids this.
