Subject: [REVIEW PATCH] scsi: Add 'retry_timeout' to avoid infinite command retry
Currently, scsi error handling in scsi_decide_disposition() tries to
unconditionally requeue scsi command when device keeps some error state.
This is because retryable errors are thought to be temporary and the scsi
device will soon recover from those errors. Normally, such retry policy is
appropriate because the device will soon recover from temporary error state.
But there is no guarantee that device is able to recover from error state
immediately. Some hardware error may prevent device from recovering.
Therefore hardware error can results in infinite command retry loop.
This patchs adds 'retry_timeout' sysfs attribute which limits the retry time
of each scsi command. Once scsi command retry time is longer than this timeout,
the command is treated as failure. 'retry_timeout' is set to '0' by default
which means no timeout set.
