Correct rescan flag race condition. Multiple conditions are being evaluated before notifying OS to do a rescan. Driver will skip rescanning the device if any one of the following conditions are met: - Devices that have not yet been added to the OS or devices that have been removed. - Devices which are already marked for removal or in the phase of removal. Under very rare conditions, after logical volume size expansion, the OS still sees the size of the logical volume which was before expansion. The rescan flag in the driver is used to signal the need for a logical volume rescan. A race condition can occur in the driver, and it leads to one thread overwriting the flag inadvertently. As a result, driver is not notifying the OS SML to rescan the logical volume. Move device->rescan update into new function pqi_mark_volumes_for_rescan() and protect with a spin lock. Move check for device->rescan into new function pqi_volume_rescan_needed() and protect function call with a spin_lock.

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 Restructured Text 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.
