Subject: [PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 048/251] IB/srp: Fix reconnection failure handling

3.19.8-ckt4 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Bart Van Assche <bart.vanassche@...disk.com>

commit a44074f14ba1ea0747ea737026eb929b81993dc3 upstream.

Although it is possible to let SRP I/O continue if a reconnect
results in a reduction of the number of channels, the current
code does not handle this scenario correctly. Instead of making
the reconnect code more complex, consider this as a reconnection
failure.
