The SRP initiator driver (ib+AF8-srp.c) follows the > latter approach. See also srp+AF8-queue+AF8-remove+AF8-work(). The unbind happens from inside the SCSI EH callback. If that really is not allowed, we'll need to change it. Or we can just change it regardless, since the effort required is pretty small. Kento, please try the patch below. Does it help with your problem?
