In the PLOGI and ADISC completion handling, the device removal event could be skipped during some link errors. This could leave a stale node in UNUSED state. Driver unload would hang for a long time waiting for this node to be freed. Resolve by taking the following steps: - Always post ADISC completion events to discovery state machine upon ADISC completion. - In case of a completion error for PLOGI/ADISC, ensure that init refcount is dropped if not registered with transport.

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.
