From 4da3a54f5a025846f9930354cfb80f075b9952e0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Andrea Parri (Microsoft)" Date: Fri, 11 Dec 2020 14:14:04 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "scsi: storvsc: Validate length of incoming packet in storvsc_on_channel_callback()" This reverts commit 3b8c72d076c42bf27284cda7b2b2b522810686f8. Dexuan reported a regression where StorVSC fails to probe a device (and where, consequently, the VM may fail to boot). The root-cause analysis led to a long-standing race condition that is exposed by the validation /commit in question. Let's put the new validation aside until a proper solution for that race condition is in place.
