Pull SCSI fixes from James Bottomley:
 "The only core fix is in doc; all the others are in drivers, with the
  biggest impacts in libsas being the rollback on error handling and in
  ufs coming from a couple of error handling fixes, one causing a crash
  if it's activated before scanning and the other fixing W-LUN
  resumption"

A PCIe bus trace reveals that a vector of MSI-X is cleared to 0 by
irqbalance daemon. If we disable irqbalance daemon, we won't see the
issue.

During adapter reset, ipr device driver blocks config space access but
can't block MMIO access for MSI-X entries.  There is very small window:
irqbalance daemon kicks in during adapter reset before ipr driver calls
pci_restore_state(pdev) to restore MSI-X table.

irqbalance daemon reads back all 0 for that MSI-X vector in
__pci_read_msi_msg().

irqbalance daemon:

  msi_domain_set_affinity()
  -&gt;irq_chip_set_affinity_patent()
  -&gt;xive_irq_set_affinity()
  -&gt;irq_chip_compose_msi_msg()
    -&gt;pseries_msi_compose_msg()
    -&gt;__pci_read_msi_msg(): read all 0 since didn't call pci_restore_state
  -&gt;irq_chip_write_msi_msg()
    -&gt; pci_write_msg_msi(): write 0 to the msix vector entry

When ipr driver calls pci_restore_state(pdev) in
ipr_reset_restore_cfg_space(), the MSI-X vector entry has been cleared
by irqbalance daemon in pci_write_msg_msix().

  pci_restore_state()
  -&gt;__pci_restore_msix_state()

Below is the MSI-X table for ipr adapter after irqbalance daemon kicked
in during adapter reset:

  Dump MSIx table: index=0 address_lo=c800 address_hi=10000000 msg_data=0
  Dump MSIx table: index=1 address_lo=c810 address_hi=10000000 msg_data=0

IRQ balancing is not required during adapter reset.

Enable "IRQ_NO_BALANCING" flag before starting adapter reset and disable
it after calling pci_restore_state(). The irqbalance daemon is disabled
for this short period of time (~2s).

<title>treewide: Drop pci_save_state() after pci_restore_state()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:383d89699c5028de510a6667f674ed38585f77fc</id>
<content type='text'>
In 2009, commit c82f63e411f1 ("PCI: check saved state before restore")
changed the behavior of pci_restore_state() such that it became necessary
to call pci_save_state() afterwards, lest recovery from subsequent PCI
errors fails.

The commit has just been reverted and so all the pci_save_state() after
pci_restore_state() calls that have accumulated in the tree are now
superfluous.  Drop them.

Two drivers chose a different approach to achieve the same result:
drivers/scsi/ipr.c and drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/netdev.c set the
pci_dev's "state_saved" flag to true before calling pci_restore_state().
Drop this as well.

The sysfs core now allows instances of 'struct bin_attribute' to be
