We found a hang issue, the test steps are as follows:
  1. blocking device via scsi_device_set_state()
  2. dd if=/dev/sda of=/mnt/t.log bs=1M count=10
  3. echo none > /sys/block/sda/queue/scheduler
  4. echo "running" >/sys/block/sda/device/state

Step 3 and 4 should finish this work after step 4, but they hangs.

Step 3 and 4 wait for each other.

To fix this, we need to run queue before rescanning device when the device
state changes to SDEV_RUNNING.

Hello Guys,

Ping again.

Otherwise, I think that rescan device is not necessary when the device
state changes from blocked to running. Run queue is not necessary either
when the device state changes from offline to running.

I want to add judgment of the old device state before rescanning device
or running queue.

I'd like to know your opinions.

Thanks,
Li Jinlin
