3.2.50-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Jeff Skirvin <jeffrey.d.skirvin@xxxxxxxxx> commit 96f15f29038e58e1b0a96483e2b369ff446becf1 upstream. This commit fixes a race condition in the isci driver abort task and SSP device task management path. The race is caused when an I/O termination in the SCU hardware is necessary because of an SSP target timeout condition, and the check of the I/O end state races against the HW-termination-driven end state. The failure of the race meant that no TMF was sent to the device to clean-up the pending I/O.
