2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Dan Williams commit 71b35f3abeb8f7f7e0afd7573424540cc5aae2d5 upstream If certain commands were in-flight when the card was pulled or the driver rmmod-ed, cleanup would block on the work queue stopping, but the work queue was in turn blocked on the current command being canceled, which didn't happen. Fix that. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams Signed-off-by: John W.
