Commit ac61d1955934 (scsi: set correct completion code in
scsi_send_eh_cmnd()) introduced a bug.  It changed the stored return
value from a queuecommand call, but it didn't take into account that
the return value was used again later on.  This patch fixes the bug by
changing the later usage.

There is a big comment in the middle of scsi_send_eh_cmnd() which
does a good job of explaining how the routine works.  But it mentions
a "rtn = FAILURE" value that doesn't exist in the code.  This patch
adjusts the code to match the comment (I assume the comment is right
and the code is wrong).

This fixes Bugzilla #88341.

<title>fnic: IOMMU Fault occurs when IO and abort IO is out of order</title>

<id>efc7a288382cffc76d6cdb9678f643db37991906</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

<title>sd: tweak discard heuristics to work around QEMU SCSI issue</title>

<content type='text'>
7985090aa020 changed the discard heuristics to give preference to the
WRITE SAME commands that (unlike UNMAP) guarantee deterministic results.

Ming Lei discovered that QEMU SCSI's WRITE SAME implementation
internally relied on limits that were only communicated for the UNMAP
case. And therefore discard commands backed by WRITE SAME would fail.

Tweak the heuristics so we still pick UNMAP in the LBPRZ=0 case and only
prefer the WRITE SAME variants if the device has the LBPRZ flag set.

Pull more ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These are regression fixes (leds-gpio, ACPI backlight driver,
  operating performance points library, ACPI device enumeration
  messages, cpupower tool), other bug fixes (ACPI EC driver, ACPI device
  PM), some cleanups in the operating performance points (OPP)
  framework, continuation of CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME elimination, a couple of
  minor intel_pstate driver changes, a new MAINTAINERS entry for it and
  an ACPI fan driver change needed for better support of thermal
  management in user space.

  Specifics:

   - Fix a regression in leds-gpio introduced by a recent commit that
     inadvertently changed the name of one of the properties used by the
     driver (Fabio Estevam).

   - Fix a regression in the ACPI backlight driver introduced by a
     recent fix that missed one special case that had to be taken into
     account (Aaron Lu).

   - Drop the level of some new kernel messages from the ACPI core
     introduced by a recent commit to KERN_DEBUG which they should have
     used from the start and drop some other unuseful KERN_ERR messages
     printed by ACPI (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - Revert an incorrect commit modifying the cpupower tool (Prarit
     Bhargava).

   - Fix two regressions introduced by recent commits in the OPP library
     and clean up some existing minor issues in that code (Viresh
     Kumar).

   - Continue to replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM throughout the
     tree (or drop it where that can be done) in order to make it
     possible to eliminate CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME (Rafael J Wysocki, Ulf
     Hansson, Ludovic Desroches).

     There will be one more "CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME removal" batch after this
     one, because some new uses of it have been introduced during the
     current merge window, but that should be sufficient to finally get
     rid of it.

   - Make the ACPI EC driver more robust against race conditions related
     to GPE handler installation failures (Lv Zheng).

   - Prevent the ACPI device PM core code from attempting to disable
     GPEs that it has not enabled which confuses ACPICA and makes it
     report errors unnecessarily (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - Add a "force" command line switch to the intel_pstate driver to
     make it possible to override the blacklisting of some systems in
     that driver if needed (Ethan Zhao).

   - Improve intel_pstate code documentation and add a MAINTAINERS entry
     for it (Kristen Carlson Accardi).

   - Make the ACPI fan driver create cooling device interfaces witn
     names that reflect the IDs of the ACPI device objects they are
     associated with, except for "generic" ACPI fans (PNP ID "PNP0C0B").

     That's necessary for user space thermal management tools to be able
     to connect the fans with the parts of the system they are supposed
     to be cooling properly.  From Srinivas Pandruvada"

When ring buffer returns an error indicating retry, storvsc may not
return a proper error code to SCSI when bounce buffer is not used.
This has introduced I/O freeze on RAID running atop storvsc devices.
This patch fixes it by always returning a proper error code.
