himanshu.madhani@cavium.com 07b7495465 scsi: qla2xxx: Fix NULL pointer crash due to active timer for ABTS
commit 1514839b36 upstream.

This patch fixes NULL pointer crash due to active timer running for abort
IOCB.

From crash dump analysis it was discoverd that get_next_timer_interrupt()
encountered a corrupted entry on the timer list.

Examining the contents of that memory reveals a pointer to a constant string
in the driver, "abort\0", which is set by qla24xx_async_abort_cmd().

The object is a srb_t, and at offset 0xf8 within that structure
(i.e. ffff95e5ff621080 + f8 -> ffff95e5ff621178) is a struct timer_list.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
