commit db196935d9562abec4510f48d887bc1f1e054fcf upstream.

We added changes in fnic driver patch 1.6.0.16 to acquire
io_req_lock in fnic_queuecommand() before issuing I/O so that io completion
is serialized. But when releasing the lock we check for the I/O flag and
this could be modified if IO abort occurs before I/O completion. In this case
we wont release the lock and causes deadlock in some scenerios. Using the
local variable to check the IO lock status will resolve the problem.

Fixes: 41df7b02db82cf6c14f094757bac3830d10a827f

When I/O is aborted by mid-layer, fnic FW will complete the I/O before
completing the abort task. In some cases abort request is completed before
the I/O, which could lead to inconsistent driver and firmware states.
In this case firmware reset would clear the inconsistent state.

Since we got rid of ordered tag support in 2010 the prime use case of
switching on and off ordered tags has been obsolete.  The other function
of enabling/disabling tagging entirely has only been correctly implemented
by the 53c700 driver and isn't generally useful.

Drop the now unused reason argument from the -&gt;change_queue_depth method.
Also add a return value to scsi_adjust_queue_depth, and rename it to
scsi_change_queue_depth now that it can be used as the default
-&gt;change_queue_depth implementation.

All drivers use the implementation for ramping the queue up and down, so
instead of overloading the change_queue_depth method call the
implementation diretly if the driver opts into it by setting the
track_queue_depth flag in the host template.

Note that a few drivers validated the new queue depth in their
change_queue_depth method, but as we never go over the queue depth
set during slave_configure or the sysfs file this isn't nessecary
and can safely be removed.

When physical link between standalone C series and switch is down,
the fip timer is not turned off and timer expiration will keep sending
vlan request.

It can be fixed by stopping the fip_timer and
it will be restarted automatically when Link is up.

IOs belonging to an rport are aborted with Internal terminate option
when rport goes offline. Any new IO issued to the rport during this
time can reuse the terminated exchange which will cause inconsistent
state of the exchange between local port and remote port.

fc_rport_priv is set to RPORT_ST_DELETE before exchanges are aborted by
libfc. Not issuing amy more I/O requests when RPORT_ST_DELETE is set,
will avoid inconsistent state of the exchange between local port and
remote port.
