[ Upstream commit 760bf578edf8122f2503a3a6a3f4b0de3b6ce0bb ]
This fixes the following races:
1. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt could have read
tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state and gone into this if chunk:
if (!explicit &&
atomic_read(&tg_pt_gp->tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state) ==
ALUA_ACCESS_STATE_TRANSITION) {
and then core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work could update the
state. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt would then only set
tg_pt_gp_alua_pending_state and the tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state would
not get updated with the second calls state.
2. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt could be setting
tg_pt_gp_transition_complete while the tg_pt_gp_transition_work
is already completing. core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt then waits on the
completion that will never be called.
To handle these issues, we just call flush_work which will return when
core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work has completed so there is no need
to do the complete/wait. And, if core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work
was running, instead of trying to sneak in the state change, we just
schedule up another core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt_work call.
Note that this does not handle a possible race where there are multiple
threads call core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt at the same time. I think
we need a mutex in target_tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state_store.
