Re: [PATCH] lpfc: Fix mailbox command failure during driver initialization

Contention for the mailbox interface may occur during driver

After setting SLI_ACTIVE flag for a port, there is a window in which
the driver will allow an ioctl to be initiated while the adapter is
initializing and issuing mailbox commands via polling. The polling
logic then gets confused.

Applied to 5.16/scsi-queue, thanks!
