From: Corey Minyard <cminyard@xxxxxxxxxx> 3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. =============== commit eb6d78ec213e6938559b801421d64714dafcf4b2 upstream. The OBF timer in KCS was not reset in one situation when error recovery was started, resulting in an immediate timeout.
