Subject: [PATCH v4 0/8] Handle update hardware queues and queue freeze more carefully

Hi,

This update version makes sure the unfreeze call is done when
recreating the queues. I was able to reproduce hanging I/Os when we go
into error recovery mode for FC and TCP [1]. Unfortunatly, I don't
have access to a RDMA setup to verify but as the code is identically
to the TCP, RDMA looks to like to suffer from the same problem.

Thanks,
Daniel
