commit 5b51f35d127e7bef55fa869d2465e2bca4636454 upstream. Link up failure occurred where driver failed to see certain events from FW indicating link up (AEN 8011) and fabric login completion (AEN 8014). Without these 2 events, driver would not proceed forward to scan the fabric. The cause of this is due to delay in the receive of interrupt for Mailbox 60 that causes qla to set the fw_started flag late. The late setting of this flag causes other interrupts to be dropped. These dropped interrupts happen to be the link up (AEN 8011) and fabric login completion (AEN 8014). Set fw_started flag early to prevent interrupts being dropped.

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.
