Subject: [PATCH net 08/15] ibmvnic: track pending login

From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@...ux.ibm.com>

If after ibmvnic sent a LOGIN and got a FAILOVER, it is possible that the
worker thread will start the reset process and free the login response
buffer before it gets a (now stale) LOGIN_RSP. The ibmvnic tasklet will
then tries to access the login response buffer and crash.

This patch tracks when ibmvnic sends a LOGIN and discards any stale login
responses.
