Correct a rare multipath failure issue by reverting commit94a68c8143("scsi: smartpqi: Quickly propagate path failures to SCSI midlayer") [1]. Reason for revert: The patch propagated the path failure to SML quickly when one of the path fails during IO and AIO path gets disabled for a multipath device. But it created a new issue: when creating a volume on an encryption-enabled controller, the firmware reports the AIO path is disabled, which cause the driver to report a path failure to SML for a multipath device. There will be a new fix to handle "Illegal request" and "Invalid field in parameter list" on RAID path when the AIO path is disabled on a multipath device.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
