[SCSI] libfc: Do not let disc work cancel itself
When number of NPIV ports created are greater than the xids allocated per pool -- for eg., creating 255 NPIV ports on a system with nr_cpu_ids of 32, with each pool containing 128 xids -- and then generating a link event - for eg., shutdown/no shutdown -- on the switch port causes the hang with the following stack trace. Call Trace: schedule_timeout+0x19d/0x230 wait_for_common+0xc0/0x170 __cancel_work_timer+0xcf/0x1b0 fc_disc_stop+0x16/0x30 [libfc] fc_lport_reset_locked+0x47/0x90 [libfc] fc_lport_enter_reset+0x67/0xe0 [libfc] fc_lport_disc_callback+0xbc/0xe0 [libfc] fc_disc_done+0xa8/0xf0 [libfc] fc_disc_timeout+0x29/0x40 [libfc] run_workqueue+0xb8/0x140 worker_thread+0x96/0x110 kthread+0x96/0xa0 child_rip+0xa/0x20 Fix is to not cancel the disc_work if discovery is already stopped, thus allowing lport state machine to restart and try discovery again.
