Subject: [PATCH 3.18 35/85] scsi: ufs: fix exception event handling

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

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

From: Maya Erez <merez@...eaurora.org>

[ Upstream commit 2e3611e9546c2ed4def152a51dfd34e8dddae7a5 ]

The device can set the exception event bit in one of the response UPIU,
for example to notify the need for urgent BKOPs operation.  In such a
case, the host driver calls ufshcd_exception_event_handler to handle
this notification.  When trying to check the exception event status (for
finding the cause for the exception event), the device may be busy with
additional SCSI commands handling and may not respond within the 100ms
timeout.

To prevent that, we need to block SCSI commands during handling of
exception events and allow retransmissions of the query requests, in
case of timeout.
