+ * The READ_CAP16 can take quite a while to complete. Should an EEH occur while
+ * in scsi_execute(), the EEH handler will attempt to recover. As part of the
+ * recovery, the handler drains all currently running ioctls, waiting until they
+ * have completed before proceeding with a reset. As this routine is used on the
+ * ioctl path, this can create a condition where the EEH handler becomes stuck,
+ * infinitely waiting for this ioctl thread. To avoid this behavior, temporarily
+ * unmark this thread as an ioctl thread by releasing the ioctl read semaphore.
+ * This will allow the EEH handler to proceed with a recovery while this thread
+ * is still running. Once the scsi_execute() returns, reacquire the ioctl read
+ * semaphore and check the adapter state in case it changed while inside of
+ * scsi_execute(). The state check will wait if the adapter is still being
+ * recovered or return a failure if the recovery failed. In the event that the
+ * adapter reset failed, simply return the failure as the ioctl would be unable
+ * to continue.
+ *
+ * Note that the above puts a requirement on this routine to only be called on
+ * an ioctl thread.
