Queued for 6.6.y, thanks.
One follow-up: 6.1.y, 5.15.y, and 5.10.y carry the same unlocked
"queue->state = NVMET_TCP_Q_LIVE" assignment and don't have this fix
either. The upstream Fixes tag (c46a6465bac2) doesn't correspond to a
real mainline commit; the race goes back to the original driver in
872d26a391da ("nvmet-tcp: add NVMe over TCP target driver", v5.0), so
all three older trees are affected. The mainline commit won't pick
cleanly there for the same NVMET_TCP_Q_FAILED reason you adapted for
6.6.
Would you be able to send backports for 6.1.y/5.15.y/5.10.y as well?
Your 6.6 adaptation looks like it should carry over with minimal
context changes.
