When reading the partition table on initial scan hits an I/O error the I/O will hang with the scan_mutex held: [<0>] do_read_cache_page+0x49b/0x790 [<0>] read_part_sector+0x39/0xe0 [<0>] read_lba+0xf9/0x1d0 [<0>] efi_partition+0xf1/0x7f0 [<0>] bdev_disk_changed+0x1ee/0x550 [<0>] blkdev_get_whole+0x81/0x90 [<0>] blkdev_get_by_dev+0x128/0x2e0 [<0>] device_add_disk+0x377/0x3c0 [<0>] nvme_mpath_set_live+0x130/0x1b0 [nvme_core] [<0>] nvme_mpath_add_disk+0x150/0x160 [nvme_core] [<0>] nvme_alloc_ns+0x417/0x950 [nvme_core] [<0>] nvme_validate_or_alloc_ns+0xe9/0x1e0 [nvme_core] [<0>] nvme_scan_work+0x168/0x310 [nvme_core] [<0>] process_one_work+0x231/0x420 and trying to delete the controller will deadlock as it tries to grab the scan mutex: [<0>] nvme_mpath_clear_ctrl_paths+0x25/0x80 [nvme_core] [<0>] nvme_remove_namespaces+0x31/0xf0 [nvme_core] [<0>] nvme_do_delete_ctrl+0x4b/0x80 [nvme_core] As we're now properly ordering the namespace list there is no need to hold the scan_mutex in nvme_mpath_clear_ctrl_paths() anymore. And we always need to kick the requeue list as the path will be marked as unusable and I/O will be requeued _without_ a current path.

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.
