<content type='text'>
Fixes a race condition in abort handling that was injected
when multiple interrupt support was added. When only a single
interrupt is present, the adapter guarantees it will send
responses for aborted commands prior to the response for the
abort command itself. With multiple interrupts, these responses
generally come back on different interrupts, so we need to
ensure the abort thread waits until the aborted command is
complete so we don't perform a double completion. This race
condition was being hit frequently in environments which
were triggering command timeouts, which was resulting in
a double completion causing a kernel oops.

Switch device scanning logic in the ipr driver to use
the async scan API. This speeds up boot times, particularly
on large systems.

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.

<title>scsi: don't set tagging state from scsi_adjust_queue_depth</title>

Remove the tagged argument from scsi_adjust_queue_depth, and just let it
handle the queue depth.  For most drivers those two are fairly separate,
given that most modern drivers don't care about the SCSI "tagged" status
of a command at all, and many old drivers allow queuing of multiple
untagged commands in the driver.

Instead we start out with the -&gt;simple_tags flag set before calling
-&gt;slave_configure, which is how all drivers actually looking at
-&gt;simple_tags except for one worke anyway.  The one other case looks
broken, but I've kept the behavior as-is for now.

Except for that we only change -&gt;simple_tags from the -&gt;change_queue_type,
and when rejecting a tag message in a single driver, so keeping this
churn out of scsi_adjust_queue_depth is a clear win.

Now that the usage of scsi_adjust_queue_depth is more obvious we can
also remove all the trivial instances in -&gt;slave_alloc or -&gt;slave_configure
that just set it to the cmd_per_lun default.

Allow a driver to ask for block layer tags by setting .use_blk_tags in the
host template, in which case it will always see a valid value in
request-&gt;tag, similar to the behavior when using blk-mq.  This means even
SCSI "untagged" commands will now have a tag, which is especially useful
when using a host-wide tag map.
