Fixing a concurrency issue with creq handling. Each caller was given a globally managed crsq element, which was accessed outside a lock. This could result in corruption, if lot of applications are simultaneously issuing Control Path commands. Now, each caller will provide its own response buffer and the responses will be copied under a lock. Also, Fixing the queue full condition check for the CMDQ. As a part of these changes, the control path code is refactored to remove the code replication in the response status checking.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
