James Smart 35ed9613d8 scsi: lpfc: Improve PCI EEH Error and Recovery Handling
Following EEH errors, the driver can crash or hang when deleting the
localport or when attempting to unload.

The EEH handlers in the driver did not notify the NVMe-FC transport before
tearing the driver down. This was delayed until the resume steps. This
worked for SCSI because lpfc_block_scsi() would notify the
scsi_fc_transport that the target was not available but it would not clean
up all the references to the ndlp.

The SLI3 prep for dev reset handler did the lpfc_offline_prep() and
lpfc_offline() calls to get the port stopped before restarting. The SLI4
version of the prep for dev reset just destroyed the queues and did not
stop NVMe from continuing.  Also because the port was not really stopped
the localport destroy would hang because the transport was still waiting
for I/O. Additionally, a devloss tmo can fire and post events to a stopped
worker thread creating another hang condition.

lpfc_sli4_prep_dev_for_reset() is modified to call lpfc_offline_prep() and
lpfc_offline() rather than just lpfc_scsi_dev_block() to ensure both SCSI
and NVMe transports are notified to block I/O to the driver.

Logic is added to devloss handler and worker thread to clean up ndlp
references and quiesce appropriately.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
