Don't let other driver config options influence us, as it makes the
code more complex and fragile for a small benefit. There's nothing
wrong with instantiating I2C devices even if they don't have a driver.
And we're talking about 835 extra bytes in the binary on x86-64,
that's hardly worth arguing about.

In e9964c10 we change cap flushing to do a delicate dance because some
inodes on the cap_dirty list could be in a migrating state (got EXPORT but
not IMPORT) in which we couldn't actually flush and move from
dirty->flushing, breaking the while (!empty) { process first } loop
structure. It worked for a single sync thread, but was not reentrant and
triggered infinite loops when multiple syncers came along.
Instead, move inodes with dirty to a separate cap_dirty_migrating list
when in the limbo export-but-no-import state, allowing us to go back to
the simple loop structure (which was reentrant). This is cleaner and more
robust.
Audited the cap_dirty users and this looks fine:
list_empty(&ci->i_dirty_item) is still a reliable indicator of whether we
have dirty caps (which list we're on is irrelevant) and list_del_init()
calls still do the right thing.

In igmp_group_dropped() we call ip_mc_clear_src(), which resets the number
of source filters per mulitcast. However, igmp_group_dropped() is also
called on NETDEV_DOWN, NETDEV_PRE_TYPE_CHANGE and NETDEV_UNREGISTER, which
means that the group might get added back on NETDEV_UP, NETDEV_REGISTER and
NETDEV_POST_TYPE_CHANGE respectively, leaving us with broken source
filters.
To fix that, we must clear the source filters only when there are no users
in the ip_mc_list, i.e. in ip_mc_dec_group() and on device destroy.

This patch addresses a bug in the target core release path for HW
operation where transport_free_dev_tasks() was incorrectly being called
from transport_lun_remove_cmd() while releasing a se_cmd reference and
calling struct target_core_fabric_ops->queue_data_in().
This would result in a OOPs with HW target mode when the release of
se_task->task_sg[] would happen before pci_unmap_sg() can be called in
HW target mode fabric module code. This patch addresses the issue by
moving transport_free_dev_tasks() from transport_lun_remove_cmd() into
transport_generic_free_cmd(), and adding TRANSPORT_FREE_CMD_INTR and
transport_generic_free_cmd_intr() to allow se_cmd descriptor release
to happen fromfrom within transport_processing_thread() process context
when release of se_cmd is not possible from HW interrupt context.

This patch fixes two bugs wrt to the interrupt context usage of target

se_device->stats_lock in transport_get_lun_for_cmd() and core_tmr_lun_reset()
to properly use spin_lock_irq() to address an BUG with CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SUPPORT=y
enabled.
This patch also adds a 'in_interrupt()' check to allow GFP_ATOMIC usage from
core_tmr_alloc_req() to fix a 'sleeping in interrupt context' BUG with HW
target fabrics that require this logic to function.

This patch fixes a bug in transport_do_task_sg_chain() used by HW target
mode modules with sg_chain() to provide a single sg_next() walkable memory
layout for use with pci_map_sg() and friends. This patch addresses an
issue with mapping multiple small block max_sector tasks across multiple
struct se_task->task_sg[] mappings for HW target mode operation.
This was causing OOPs with (cmd->t_task->t_tasks_no > 1) I/O traffic for
HW target drivers using transport_do_task_sg_chain(), and has been tested
so far with tcm_fc(openfcoe), tcm_qla2xxx, and ib_srpt fabrics with
t_tasks_no > 1 IBLOCK backends using a smaller max_sectors to trigger the
original issue.

In error recovery, most scsi error recovery stages will send a TUR command
for every bad command when a driver's error handler reports success. When
several bad commands to the same device, this results in a device
being probed multiple times.
This becomes very problematic if the device or connection is in a state
where the device still doesn't respond to commands even after a recovery
function returns success. The error handler must wait for the test
commands to time out. The time waiting for the redundant commands can
drastically lengthen error recovery.
This patch alters the scsi mid-layer's error routines to send test commands
once per device instead of once per bad command. This can drastically
lower error recovery time.

There exists a race condition when using wait_queue_head_t objects
that are declared on the stack. This was being done in a few places
where we are sending work requests to the FW and awaiting replies, but
we don't have an endpoint structure with an embedded c4iw_wr_wait

design. The race is:
1) thread on cpuX declares the wait_queue_head_t on the stack, then
posts a firmware WR with that wait object ptr as the cookie to be
returned in the WR reply. This thread will proceed to block in
wait_event_timeout() but before it does:
2) An interrupt runs on cpuY with the WR reply. fw6_msg() handles
this and calls c4iw_wake_up(). c4iw_wake_up() sets the condition
variable in the c4iw_wr_wait object to TRUE and will call
wake_up(), but before it calls wake_up():
3) The thread on cpuX calls c4iw_wait_for_reply(), which calls
wait_event_timeout(). The wait_event_timeout() macro checks the
condition variable and returns immediately since it is TRUE. So
this thread never blocks/sleeps. The function then returns
effectively deallocating the c4iw_wr_wait object that was on the
stack.
4) So at this point cpuY has a pointer to the c4iw_wr_wait object
that is no longer valid. Further its pointing to a stack frame
that might now be in use by some other context/thread. So cpuY
continues execution and calls wake_up() on a ptr to a wait object
that as been effectively deallocated.
This race, when it hits, can cause a crash in wake_up(), which I've
seen under heavy stress. It can also corrupt the referenced stack
which can cause any number of failures.
The fix:
Use struct completion, which supports on-stack declarations.
Completions use a spinlock around setting the condition to true and
the wake up so that steps 2 and 4 above are atomic and step 3 can
never happen in-between.

Some kernel transport drivers unconditionally disable
retrieval of the Caching mode page. One such for example is
the BBB/CBI transport over USB. Such a restraint is too
harsh as some devices do support the Caching mode
page. Unconditionally enabling the retrieval of this mode
page over those transports at their transport code level may
result in some devices failing and becoming unusable.
This patch implements a method of retrieving the Caching
mode page without unconditionally enabling it in the
transports which unconditionally disable it. The idea is to
ask for all supported pages, page code 0x3F, and then search
for the Caching mode page in the mode parameter data
returned. The sd driver already asks for all the mode pages
supported by the attached device by setting the page code to
0x3F in order to find out if the media is write protected by
reading the WP bit in the Device Specific Parameter
field. It then attempts to retrieve only the Caching mode
page by setting the page code to 8 and actually attempting
to retrieve it if and only if the transport allows it.
The method implemented here is that if the transport doesn't
allow retrieval of the Caching mode page and the device is
not RBC, then we ask for all pages supported by setting the
page code to 0x3F (similarly to how the WP bit is retrieved
above), and then we search for the Caching mode page in the
mode parameter data returned.
With this patch, devices over SATA, report this (no change):
Oct 22 18:45:58 localhost kernel: sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] 976773168 512-byte logical blocks: (500 GB/465 GiB)

Smart devices report their Caching mode page. This is a
change where we'd previously see the kernel making
assumption about the device's cache being write-through:
Oct 22 18:45:58 localhost kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0
Oct 22 18:45:58 localhost kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] 610472646 4096-byte logical blocks: (2.50 TB/2.27 TiB)
Oct 22 18:45:58 localhost kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off

Oct 22 18:45:58 localhost kernel: sd 6:0:0:0: [sdb] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, supports DPO and FUA
And "dumb" devices over BBB, are correctly shown not to
support reporting the Caching mode page:
Oct 22 18:49:06 localhost kernel: sd 7:0:0:0: [sdc] 15663104 512-byte logical blocks: (8.01 GB/7.46 GiB)

Oct 22 18:49:06 localhost kernel: sd 7:0:0:0: [sdc] No Caching mode page present
Oct 22 18:49:06 localhost kernel: sd 7:0:0:0: [sdc] Assuming drive cache: write through
Version 2 adds this:
Some devices don't support page code 0x3F, and others require a
fixed transfer length of 192 bytes. This single commit includes a
patch by Alan Stern which fixes this.
