On link up and node discovery, a remote port is registered with the SCSI transport and the driver sets fc4_xpt_flags to track transport registration. A link down event causes the driver to deregister with the SCSI transport, starting the devloss timer, and calls a local unreg routine to clear the login state. Part of the login state is the fc4_xpt_flags. However, with tape devices that support sequence level error recovery, which wants to preserve the login, the local unreg routine is skipped, thus the flags aren't cleared. A subsequent link up, ADISC is performed and the lpfc_nlp_reg_node() routine is called. As the fc4_xpt_flags is not clear, it's believed the node is already registered with the transport. Unfortunately, the registration was already terminated. Eventually the devloss tmo timer expires and tears down the device. Fix by ensuring the tape device, known by the ADISC flag, is always unregistered if the link drops.

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.
