Re: [PATCH] SCSI: Synchronization issue while deleting vport

[James Smart <james.smart@emulex.com>]

James B controls the merge into upstream.  He will most likely include the 
patch in scsi-rc-fixes-2.6, which will merge into one of the 2.6.33-rc? phases.

I assume the process, to get it into an already released kernel rev, is to 
petition the 2.6.<rev>-stable tree maintainer (usually GregKH) to pick it up. 
  You do need to be careful, as some changes are dependent on other things 
that may have changed since that kernel revision. However, I don't think this 
change would have that problem.
