(See iSCSI driver at drivers/scsi/qla4xxx) If the interface is being up/downed at a rapid pace this driver may need to sleep waiting to get access to the common resources. For this we are moving the state machine to run as a work thread. Signed-off-by: Ron Mercer Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
