SubjectRe: [PATCH] scsi_debug: deadlock between completions and surprise module removal
With scsi-mq I think many LLDs probably have a new
race possibility between a surprise rmmod of the LLD
and another thread presenting a new command at about
the same time (or another thread's command completing
around that time). Does anything above the LLD stop
this happening?

Looking at mpt3sas and hpsa module exit calls, they don't
seem to guard against this possibility.

The test is pretty easy: build the LLD as a module, load
it and fire up a multi-thread, libaio fio test on one or
more devices (SSDs would probably be good) on that LLD.
While the test is running, do 'rmmod LLD'.
