This is three essential bug fixes for various SCSI parts. The only affected users are SCSI multi-path via device handler (basically all the enterprise) and mvsas users. The dh bugs are an async entanglement in boot resulting in a serious WARN_ON trip and a use after free on remove leading to a crash with strict memory accounting. The mvsas bug manifests as a null deref oops but only on abort sequences; however, these can commonly occur with SATA attached devices, hence the fix.

The patch is available here:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi.git scsi-fixes

The short changelog is:

Christoph Hellwig (1):
scsi_dh: don't try to load a device handler during async probing

Dāvis Mosāns (1):
mvsas: Fix NULL pointer dereference in mvs_slot_task_free

Junichi Nomura (1):
scsi_dh: fix use-after-free when removing scsi device
