commit b1ae65c082f74536ec292b15766f2846f0238373 upstream.
User experienced symptoms of adapter failure in NPIV environment. NPIV
hosts were allowed to trigger chip reset back to back due to NPIV link
state being slow to come online.
Fix link failure in NPIV environment by removing NPIV host from directly
being able to perform chip reset.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
