Hi
I think I have chased down the reason behind the bug reported by SCSI
subsystem following your guidance, and have reported to SCSI
mainteners [1]
This is a fruitful journey, thank you all ;-)
So once again, Joel's patch is tested good ;-)
Tested-by: Zhouyi Zhou <zhouzhouyi@xxxxxxxxx>
Thanks for your attention
Thanks
