Subject: [PATCH 4.15 24/55] scsi: aacraid: Fix udev inquiry race condition

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

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

From: Raghava Aditya Renukunta <RaghavaAditya.Renukunta@...rosemi.com>

commit f4e8708d3104437fd7716e957f38c265b0c509ef upstream.

When udev requests for a devices inquiry string, it might create multiple
threads causing a race condition on the shared inquiry resource string.

Created a buffer with the string for each thread.

Fixes: 3bc8070fb75b3315 ([SCSI] aacraid: SMC vendor identification)
