Suganath Prabu 5553e2bdcb scsi: mpt3sas: Fix Sync cache command failure during driver unload
[ Upstream commit 9029a72500 ]

This is to fix SYNC CACHE and START STOP command failures with
DID_NO_CONNECT during driver unload.

In driver's IO submission patch (i.e. in driver's .queuecommand()) driver
won't allow any SCSI commands to the IOC when ioc->remove_host flag is set
and hence SYNC CACHE commands which are issued to the target drives (where
write cache is enabled) during driver unload time is failed with
DID_NO_CONNECT status.

Now modified the driver to allow SYNC CACHE and START STOP commands to IOC,
even when remove_host flag is set.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

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.
