Subject: qla2xxx firmware crashes in target mode

Hi folks,

So this is a bit of a strange situation I'm in, where my *target*
qla2xxx firmware appears to get stuck when the *initiator* kernel is 4.1+.

The target is an Intel system with a QLE2464 running kernel 4.2.1 (from
Debian) and using fw=7.03.00. The initiator is another Intel system with
a QLE2460 and using fw=7.03.00. They are connected by direct fibre link,
there are no switches / fabric involved.

The initiator and target are both stable when the initiator is running
kernel 4.0 or lower. When the initiator is running a 4.1 or 4.2 kernel,
the *target* firmware becomes unstable and the initiator times out IOs
and generally becomes very unhappy.

When booting a 4.1+ kernel on the initiator, everything appears to work
well for a little while (up to an hour or so) before the issue manifests
itself. At some point I see the "ISP System Error" message and IO locks
up. To get out of this situation I need to reboot the initiator; the
target appears to recover by itself.

Do you know about this issue? I can debug further (e.g. try to bisect
it?) if required but no point if you know about it already.

dmesg from the target end (I haven't been able to capture the initiator
end):
