This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled scsi: qla2xxx: Don't defer relogin unconditonally to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: scsi-qla2xxx-don-t-defer-relogin-unconditonally.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit cb6654fa4596514d61d6350c5c32b12a445eabf4 Author: Roman Bolshakov <r.bolshakov@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Nov 25 19:57:00 2019 +0300 scsi: qla2xxx: Don't defer relogin unconditonally [ Upstream commit dabc5ec915f3a2c657ecfb529cd3d4ec303a4412 ] qla2x00_configure_local_loop sets RELOGIN_NEEDED bit and calls qla24xx_fcport_handle_login to perform the login. This bit triggers a wake up of DPC later after a successful login. The deferred call is not needed if login succeeds, and it's set in qla24xx_fcport_handle_login in case of errors, hence it should be safe to drop.
