[PATCH 3.10 22/54] scsi_dh_rdac: always retry MODE SELECT on command lock violation

From: Hannes Reinecke <hare@suse.de>

commit d2d06d4fe0f2cc2df9b17fefec96e6e1a1271d91 upstream.

If MODE SELECT returns with sense '05/91/36' (command lock violation)
it should always be retried without counting the number of retries.
During an HBA upgrade or similar circumstances one might see a flood
of MODE SELECT command from various HBAs, which will easily trigger
the sense code and exceed the retry count.
