Nice work with the reproducer!

Well, but setting !CONFIG_OPTIMIZE_INLINING makes the problem go away
for some reason. It seems like the bug requires wwn_to_u64() being
out-of-line and __swab64p() being in-line.
In fact, the following patch seems to fix it:
diff --git a/include/scsi/scsi_transport_fc.h b/include/scsi/scsi_transport_fc.h
index bf66ea6..56b9e81 100644
--- a/include/scsi/scsi_transport_fc.h
+++ b/include/scsi/scsi_transport_fc.h
@@ -796,7 +796,7 @@ fc_remote_port_chkready(struct fc_rport *rport)
return result;
}
-static inline u64 wwn_to_u64(u8 *wwn)
+static __always_inline u64 wwn_to_u64(u8 *wwn)
{
return get_unaligned_be64(wwn);
}

Yeah, and according to objtool this is the only occurrence of this bug
in the entire kernel tree. Thanks to the kbuild robot randconfig
builds, I think we can be pretty confident that objtool will find any
more of them if they show up.
So what do you think about working around this bug by doing something
like the above patch?
