scsi: avoid a permanent stop of the scsi device's request queue
commit d2a145252c52792bc59e4767b486b26c430af4bb upstream. A race between scanning and fc_remote_port_delete() may result in a permanent stop if the device gets blocked before scsi_sysfs_add_sdev() and unblocked after. The reason is that blocking a device sets both the SDEV_BLOCKED state and the QUEUE_FLAG_STOPPED. However, scsi_sysfs_add_sdev() unconditionally sets SDEV_RUNNING which causes the device to be ignored by scsi_target_unblock() and thus never have its QUEUE_FLAG_STOPPED cleared leading to a device which is apparently running but has a stopped queue. We actually have two places where SDEV_RUNNING is set: once in scsi_add_lun() which respects the blocked flag and once in scsi_sysfs_add_sdev() which doesn't. Since the second set is entirely spurious, simply remove it to fix the problem. Reported-by: Zengxi Chen <chenzengxi@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Wei Fang <fangwei1@huawei.com> Reviewed-by: Ewan D.
