Subject: [s390] zfcp: Deadlock when adding invalid LUN
Message-id: 20071210130330.GB29540@redhat.com
O-Subject: [RHEL5 U2 PATCH 2/8] s390 - zfcp: Deadlock when adding invalid LUN
Bugzilla: 412841
RH-Acked-by: Pete Zaitcev <zaitcev@redhat.com>

Description
============

After adding an invalid LUN to zfcp, this LUN can not be removed again,
the sysfs write for removal returs ENODEV.

The unit_add calls internally scsi_add_device, this function calls the
zfcp slave_destroy handler after determining that the unit does
not exist.
The zfcp slave_destroy handler waits for the scsi_add_device call to complete and
we have a deadlock.

The problem is fixed removing the wait in the zfcp slave_destroy handler. It was
not required anyway and this resolves the deadlock.
