Quoting Hans: If we return 1 from our post_reset handler, then our disconnect handler will be called immediately afterwards. Since pre_reset blocks all scsi requests our disconnect handler will then hang in the scsi_remove_host call. This is esp. bad because our disconnect handler hanging for ever also stops the USB subsys from enumerating any new USB devices, causes commands like lsusb to hang, etc. In practice this happens when unplugging some uas devices because the hub code may see the device as needing a warm-reset and calls usb_reset_device before seeing the disconnect. In this case uas_configure_endpoints fails with -ENODEV. We do not want to print an error for this, so this commit also silences the shost_printk for -ENODEV. ENDQUOTE However, if we do that we better drop any unconditional execution and report to the SCSI subsystem that we have undergone a reset but we are not operational now.
