Ming Lei fd4fb50807 scsi: core: Don't start concurrent async scan on same host
[ Upstream commit 831e3405c2a344018a18fcc2665acc5a38c3a707 ]

The current scanning mechanism is supposed to fall back to a synchronous
host scan if an asynchronous scan is in progress. However, this rule isn't
strictly respected, scsi_prep_async_scan() doesn't hold scan_mutex when
checking shost->async_scan. When scsi_scan_host() is called concurrently,
two async scans on same host can be started and a hang in do_scan_async()
is observed.

Fixes this issue by checking & setting shost->async_scan atomically with
shost->scan_mutex.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
