IPR driver causes multipath to fail paths/stuck IO on Medium Errors

------- Comment From <email address hidden> 2017-08-14 13:12 EDT-------
This one hasn't been touched in months... We need to get this fix into a 16.04 SRU...

Bug description updated w/ SRU template.

Patch submitted to kernel-team mailing list.

[SRU Z/X][PATCH] scsi: ipr: do not set DID_PASSTHROUGH on CHECK CONDITION
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2017-August/086518.html

Requested for
- Zesty/17.04 (target 16.04.3 HWE kernel / v4.10-based) and
- Xenial/16.04 (GA kernel / v4.4-based).

Already applied on
- Artful/17.10 (16.04.4 HWE kernel).

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-zesty' to 'verification-done-zesty'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-zesty' to 'verification-failed-zesty'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Marking as verification done on Zesty.

Verified that the commit is applied in the zesty's kernel master-next branch (cannot verify in hardware currently, but the code change is trivial and has been tested on real hardware before in Ubuntu kernels and upstream for upstream submission).

Likewise for Xenial.
