Current -next-20191204 contains
fcport->nvme_flag &= ~NVME_FLAG_REGISTERED;
fcport->nvme_flag &= ~ NVME_FLAG_DELETING;
... and there's no explanation in changelog why removing
NVME_FLAG_REGISTERED is good idea.
This patch was mostly cleanup and if you notice on line 541 we are already clearing up NVME_FLAG_REGISTERED flag.
e84067d743010 (Duane Grigsby 2017-06-21 13:48:43 -0700 541) fcport->nvme_flag &= ~NVME_FLAG_REGISTERED;
so this patch is just removing duplicate clearing. At some point we will need to fix double line of clearing NVME_FLAG_REGISTERED and NVME_FLAG_DELETING
in one line. I'll send patch to fix that for net-next.
Thanks,
Himanshu
