Subject: [PATCH 5.4 349/453] s390/dasd: fix hanging device offline processing

From: Stefan Haberland <sth@...ux.ibm.com>

commit 658a337a606f48b7ebe451591f7681d383fa115e upstream.

For an LCU update a read unit address configuration IO is required.
This is started using sleep_on(), which has early exit paths in case the
device is not usable for IO. For example when it is in offline processing.

In those cases the LCU update should fail and not be retried.
Therefore lcu_update_work checks if EOPNOTSUPP is returned or not.

Commit 41995342b40c ("s390/dasd: fix endless loop after read unit address configuration")
accidentally removed the EOPNOTSUPP return code from
read_unit_address_configuration(), which in turn might lead to an endless
loop of the LCU update in offline processing.

Fix by returning EOPNOTSUPP again if the device is not able to perform the
request.
