[PATCH] ata: fix a race condition when internal cmd time out

From: Jason Yan
Date: Fri Feb 15 2019 - 22:45:03 EST


For internal cmds, we will unmap DMA memory associated with the cmd
before we abort the cmd. If DMA transfering data before the aborting,
bus error will occured.

ata_exec_internal_sg
->ata_port_freeze if timeout
->ata_qc_complete
->ata_sg_clean
dma transfering data = bus error
->ap->ops->post_internal_cmd
->sas_ata_post_internal
->sas_ata_internal_abort
->abort the cmd

Fix this by move post_internal_cmd() before unmapping the DMA memory
when time out. Notice that we have to set ATA_QCFLAG_FAILED flag before
calling post_internal_cmd() so that the aborting will work.
