Hi Johannes,

I am happy to do that, but recently I am very busy, so it may be done
a bit late by me.

But anyone should reproduce the issue 100% with V4.15-rc kernel by just
running the above script, not any specific hardware is required at all,
so that means anyone can make a patch for blktest to test block/SCSI
timeout if he/she is interested in doing that.

Thanks,
Ming
