3.16.7-ckt25 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
---8<------------------------------------------------------------
From: Hannes Reinecke <hare@xxxxxxx>
commit d2d06d4fe0f2cc2df9b17fefec96e6e1a1271d91 upstream.
If MODE SELECT returns with sense '05/91/36' (command lock violation)
it should always be retried without counting the number of retries.
During an HBA upgrade or similar circumstances one might see a flood
of MODE SELECT command from various HBAs, which will easily trigger
the sense code and exceed the retry count.
