3.16.57-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Raghava Aditya Renukunta <RaghavaAditya.Renukunta@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit f4e8708d3104437fd7716e957f38c265b0c509ef upstream.
When udev requests for a devices inquiry string, it might create multiple
threads causing a race condition on the shared inquiry resource string.
Created a buffer with the string for each thread.
Fixes: 3bc8070fb75b3315 ([SCSI] aacraid: SMC vendor identification)
