3.0-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: "Stephen M. Cameron" <scame...@beardog.cce.hp.com> commit 256d0eaac87da1e993190846064f339f4c7a63f5 upstream. If a command status of CMD_PROTOCOL_ERR is received, this information should be conveyed to the SCSI mid layer, not dropped on the floor. CMD_PROTOCOL_ERR may be received from the Smart Array for any commands destined for an external RAID controller such as a P2000, or commands destined for tape drives or CD/DVD-ROM drives, if for instance a cable is disconnected. This mostly affects multipath configurations, as disconnecting a cable on a non-multipath configuration is not going to do anything good regardless of whether CMD_PROTOCOL_ERR is handled correctly or not. Not handling CMD_PROTOCOL_ERR correctly in a multipath configaration involving external RAID controllers may cause data corruption, so this is quite a serious bug. This bug should not normally cause a problem for direct attached disk storage. Signed-off-by: Stephen M.
