    [PATCH] s390: irb faking. · 39d324ae
    Cornelia Huck authored
    Common i/o layer changes:
     - If a device driver tries to start I/O while the common I/O layer wants
       to start path verification, don't reject the I/O with -EBUSY (which
       might prompt the driver to retry the next tick) but seemingly accept
       the I/O and deliver a fake irb with deferred cc 1 after path
       verification has finished (prompting the driver to retry the I/O).
       This prevents the device driver from doing useless retries while cio
       is still busy with path verification.
