s390/qeth: fix dangling IO buffers after halt/clear
The cio layer's intparm logic does not align itself well with how qeth manages cmd IOs. When an active IO gets terminated via halt/clear, the corresponding IRQ's intparm does not reflect the cmd buffer but rather the intparm that was passed to ccw_device_halt() / ccw_device_clear(). This behaviour was recently clarified in commit b91d9e67e50b ("s390/cio: fix intparm documentation"). As a result, qeth_irq() currently doesn't cancel a cmd that was terminated via halt/clear. This primarily causes us to leak card->read_cmd after the qeth device is removed, since our IO path still holds a refcount for this cmd. For qeth this means that we need to keep track of which IO is pending on a device ('active_cmd'), and use this as the intparm when calling halt/clear. Otherwise qeth_irq() can't match the subsequent IRQ to its cmd buffer. Since we now keep track of the _expected_ intparm, we can also detect any mismatch; this would constitute a bug somewhere in the lower layers. In this case cancel the active cmd - we effectively "lost" the IRQ and should not expect any further notification for this IO.

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.
