  Moving the patch from bug:515284 since that is already ON_QA.

I have already submitted the patch to linux-scsi mailing list.

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux maintenance release.  Product Management has requested
further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential
inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update release for currently deployed
products.  This request is not yet committed for inclusion in an Update
release.

@ServerEngines, @Emulex

We need to confirm that there is commitment to test for 
the resolution of this request during the RHEL 5.5 Beta 
Test Phase before we can approve it for acceptance 
into the release.

RHEL 5.5 Beta Test Phase is expected to begin around February
2010.

In order to avoid any unnecessary delays, please post a 
confirmation as soon as possible, including the contact 
information for testing engineers.

Any additional information about alternative testing variations we 
could use to reproduce this issue in-house would be appreciated.
