Subject: [GIT PULL] SCSI fixes for 5.8-rc5

Small core patch to fix a corner case bug: we forgot to run the queues
to handle starvation in the error exit from the scsi_queue_rq routine,
which can lead to hangs on error conditions.

The patch is available here:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi.git scsi-fixes

The short changelog is:

Ming Lei (1):
      scsi: core: Run queue in case of I/O resource contention failure
