Subject: IB/srp: Fix deadlock between host removal and multipathd
From: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@xxxxxxx>
commit bcc05910359183b431da92713e98eed478edf83a upstream.
If scsi_remove_host() is invoked after a SCSI device has been blocked,
if the fast_io_fail_tmo or dev_loss_tmo work gets scheduled on the
workqueue executing srp_remove_work() and if an I/O request is
scheduled after the SCSI device had been blocked by e.g. multipathd
then the following deadlock can occur:
kworker/6:1 D ffff880831f3c460 0 195 2 0x00000000

Fix this by scheduling removal work on another workqueue than the
transport layer timers.
