    isci: atomic device lookup and reference counting · 209fae14
    Dan Williams 提交于
    We have unsafe references to remote devices that are notified to
    disappear at lldd_dev_gone.  In order to clean this up we need a single
    canonical source for device lookups and stable references once a lookup
    succeeds.  Towards that end guarantee that domain_device.lldd_dev is
    NULL as soon as we start the process of stopping a device.  Any code
    path that wants to safely lookup a remote device must do so through
    task->dev->lldd_dev (isci_lookup_device()).
    
    For in-flight references outside of scic_lock we need reference counting
    to ensure that the device is not recycled before we are done with it.
    Simplify device back references to just scic_sds_request.target_device
    which is now the only permissible internal reference that is maintained
    relative to the reference count.
    
    There were two occasions where we wanted new i/o's to be treated as
    SAS_TASK_UNDELIVERED but where the domain_dev->lldd_dev link is still
    intact.  Introduce a 'gone' flag to prevent i/o while waiting for libsas
    to take action on the port down event.
    
    One 'core' leftover is that we currently call
    scic_remote_device_destruct() from isci_remote_device_deconstruct()
    which is called when the 'core' says the device is stopped.  It would be
    more natural for the final put to trigger
    isci_remote_device_deconstruct() but this implementation is deferred as
    it requires other changes.
