commit 1ae948fa4f00f3a2823e7cb19a3049ef27dd6947 upstream.
This fixes a potential race condition observed on Power systems.
Several places throughout the aacraid driver call aac_fib_send or similar to send a command to the aacraid adapter, then check the return code to determine if the command was actually sent to the adapter, then update the phase field in the scsi command scratch pad area to track that the firmware now owns this command. However, there is nothing that ensures that by the time the aac_fib_send function returns and we go to write to the scsi command, that the command hasn't already completed and the scsi command has been freed. This was causing random crashes in the TCP stack which was tracked down to be caused by memory that had been a struct request + scsi_cmnd being now used for an skbuff. Memory poisoning was enabled in the kernel to debug this which showed that the last owner of the memory that had been freed was aacraid and that it was a struct request. The memory that was corrupted was the exact data pattern of AAC_OWNER_FIRMWARE and it was at the same offset that aacraid writes, which is scsicmd->SCp.phase. The patch below resolves this issue.
