Commit a264cf5e81c7 ("scsi: ibmvfc: Fix command state accounting and stale
response detection") introduced a regression in detecting duplicate
responses. This was observed in test where a command was sent to the VIOS
and completed before ibmvfc_send_event() set the active flag to 1, which
resulted in the atomic_dec_if_positive() call in ibmvfc_handle_crq()
thinking this was a duplicate response, which resulted in scsi_done() not
getting called, so we then hit a SCSI command timeout for this command once
the timeout expires. This simply ensures the active flag gets set prior to
making the hcall to send the command to the VIOS, in order to close this
window.

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.
