sd_prep_fn will allocate a larger CDB for the command via mempool_alloc
for devices using DIF type 2 protection.  This CDB was being freed
in sd_done, which results in a kernel crash if the command is retried
due to a UNIT ATTENTION.  This change moves the code to free the larger
CDB into sd_unprep_fn instead, which is invoked after the request is
complete.

It is no longer necessary to call scsi_print_command separately for
this case as the -&gt;cmnd will no longer be NULL in the normal code path.

Also removed conditional test for DIF type 2 when freeing the larger
CDB because the protection_type could have been changed via sysfs while
the command was executing.

Pull first round of SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
 "The patch set is mostly driver updates (usf, zfcp, lpfc, mpt2sas,
  megaraid_sas, bfa, ipr) and a few bug fixes.  Also of note is that the
  Buslogic driver has been rewritten to a better coding style and 64 bit
  support added.  We also removed the libsas limitation on 16 bytes for
  the command size (currently no drivers make use of this)"

Calling dev_set_name with a single paramter causes it to be handled as a
format string.  Many callers are passing potentially dynamic string
content, so use "%s" in those cases to avoid any potential accidents,
including wrappers like device_create*() and bdi_register().

<content type='text'>
SATA drives located behind a SAS controller would incorrectly receive
WRITE SAME commands. Tweak the heuristics so that:

 - If REPORT SUPPORTED OPERATION CODES is provided we will use that to
   choose between WRITE SAME(16), WRITE SAME(10) and disabled. This also
   fixes an issue with the old code which would issue WRITE SAME(10)
   despite the command not being whitelisted in REPORT SUPPORTED
   OPERATION CODES.

 - If REPORT SUPPORTED OPERATION CODES is not provided we will fall back
   to WRITE SAME(10) unless the device has an ATA Information VPD page.
   The assumption is that a SATL which is smart enough to implement
   WRITE SAME would also provide REPORT SUPPORTED OPERATION CODES.

To facilitate the new heuristics scsi_report_opcode() has been modified
to so we can distinguish between "operation not supported" and "RSOC not
supported".

Commit 39c60a0948cc '[SCSI] sd: fix array cache flushing bug causing
performance problems' added temp as a pointer to "temporary " and used
sizeof(temp) - 1 as its length.  But sizeof(temp) is the size of the
pointer, not the size of the string constant.  Change temp to a static
array so that sizeof() does what was intended.

<title>[SCSI] sd: avoid deadlocks when running under multipath</title>

<id>0761df9c4b2d966da3af2ac4ee7372afa681ce63</id>
<content type='text'>
When multipathed systems run into an all-paths-down scenario
all devices might be dropped, too. This causes 'del_gendisk'
to be called, which will unregister the kobj_map-&gt;probe()
function for all disk device numbers.
When the device comes back the default -&gt;probe() function
is run which will call __request_module(), which will
deadlock.
As 'del_gendisk' typically does _not_ trigger a module unload
the default -&gt;probe() function is pointless anyway.
This patch implements a dummy -&gt;probe() function, which will
just return NULL if the disk is not registered.
This will avoid the deadlock. Plus it'll speed up device
scanning.

out anyway, even if something tried to pass something meaningful.
