    scsi: zfcp: Fence adapter status propagation for common statuses · 971f2abb
    Benjamin Block authored
    Common status flags that all main objects - adapter, port, and unit -
    support are propagated to sub-objects when set or cleared. For instance,
    when setting the status ZFCP_STATUS_COMMON_ERP_INUSE for an adapter object,
    we will propagate this to all its child ports and units - same for when
    clearing a common status flag.
    
    Units of an adapter object are enumerated via __shost_for_each_device()
    over the scsi host object of the corresponding adapter.
    
    Once we move the scsi host object allocation and registration to after the
    first exchange config and exchange port data, this won't be possible for
    cases where we set or clear common statuses during the very first adapter
    recovery.
    
    But since we won't have any port or unit objects yet at that point of time,
    we can just fence the status propagation for cases where the scsi host
    object is not yet set in the adapter object. It won't change any effective
    status propagations, but will prevent us from dereferencing invalid
    pointers.
    
    For any later point in the work flow the scsi host object will be set and
    thus nothing is changed then.
