Prevent kernel crash by failing outstanding I/O request when the OS takes device offline. When posted I/Os to the controller's inbound queue are not picked by the controller, the driver will halt the controller and take the controller offline. When the driver takes the controller offline, the driver will fail all the outstanding requests which can sometimes lead to an OS crash.

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.
