    scsi: ibmvfc: Fix command state accounting and stale response detection · a264cf5e

    Prior to commit 1f4a4a19 ("scsi: ibmvfc: Complete commands outside the
    host/queue lock") responses to commands were completed sequentially with
    the host lock held such that a command had a basic binary state of active
    or free. It was therefore a simple affair of ensuring the assocaiated
    ibmvfc_event to a VIOS response was valid by testing that it was not
    already free. The lock relexation work to complete commands outside the
    lock inadverdently made it a trinary command state such that a command is
    either in flight, received and being completed, or completed and now
    free. This breaks the stale command detection logic as a command may be
    still marked active and been placed on the delayed completion list when a
    second stale response for the same command arrives. This can lead to double
    completions and list corruption. This issue was exposed by a recent VIOS
    regression were a missing memory barrier could occasionally result in the
    ibmvfc client receiving a duplicate response for the same command.
    
    Fix the issue by introducing the atomic ibmvfc_event.active to track the
    trinary state of a command. The state is explicitly set to 1 when a command
    is successfully sent. The CRQ response handlers use
    atomic_dec_if_positive() to test for stale responses and correctly
    transition to the completion state when a active command is received.
    Finally, atomic_dec_and_test() is used to sanity check transistions when
    commands are freed as a result of a completion, or moved to the purge list
    as a result of error handling or adapter reset.
