Subject: scsi: mpt3sas: fix memory ordering on 64bit writes
Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2019 14:25:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <64315149f996e6860ac35acaa5a7d905@localhost> (raw)

Request to include the following patch into stable for linux-4.19 and 
linux-4.20:

scsi: mpt3sas: fix memory ordering on 64bit writes
commit: 23c3828aa2f8


Commit 09c2f95ad404 introduced a bug apparent on powerpc64 systems 
causing SAS HBAs relying on mpt3sas to drop from the PCIe bus under 
load, rendering those devices virtually useless.

As linux-4.19 is a longterm kernel, the bug would affect those systems 
for a long time otherwise.
