RE: [PATCH] csiostor:Fix locking issues in the function csio_scsim_cleanup_io_lnode

[Praveen Madhavan]

csio_scsim_cleanup_io_lnode always called with spin_lock_irq held.
Please refer:
csio_attr.c:624:        csio_scsim_cleanup_io_lnode(csio_hw_to_scsim(hw), ln);
csio_attr.c:649:                csio_scsim_cleanup_io_lnode(csio_hw_to_scsim(hw), ln);
