[ Upstream commit b622a601a13ae5974c5b0aeecb990c224b8db0d9 ] While failing queued I/Os in TMF path, there was a request leak and hence stale entries in request pool with ref count being non-zero. In shutdown path we have a BUG_ON to catch stuck I/O either in firmware or in the driver. The stale requests caused a system crash. The I/O request pool leakage also lead to a significant performance drop.

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.
