3.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Mahesh Rajashekhara <mahesh.rajashekh...@pmcs.com> commit c5bebd829dd95602c15f8da8cc50fa938b5e0254 upstream. One of the customer had reported that the set of raid logical arrays will become unavailable (I/O offline) after a long hours of IO stress test. The OS wouldn`t be accessible afterwards and require a hard reset. This driver patch has a fix for race condition between the doorbell and the circular buffer. The driver is modified to do an extra read after clearing the doorbell in case there had been a completion posted during the small timing window. With this fix, we ran IO stress for ~13 days. There were no IO failures.
