Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme-fc: Do not cancel requests in io target before it is initialized
A new nvme-fc controller in CONNECTING state sees admin request timeout
schedules ctrl->ioerr_work to abort inflight requests. This ends up
calling __nvme_fc_abort_outstanding_ios() which aborts requests in both
admin and io tagsets. In case fc_ctrl->tag_set was not initialized we
see the warning below. This is because ctrl.queue_count is initialized
early in nvme_fc_alloc_ctrl().
nvme nvme0: NVME-FC{0}: starting error recovery Connectivity Loss
INFO: trying to register non-static key.
The code is fine but needs lockdep annotation, or maybe
lpfc 0000:ab:00.0: queue 0 connect admin queue failed (-6).
you didn't initialize this object before use?
turning off the locking correctness validator.
