scsi: lpfc: Fix hard lockup when reading the rx_monitor from debugfs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: lpfc: Fix hard lockup when reading the rx_monitor from debugfs During I/O and simultaneous cat of /sys/kernel/debug/lpfc/fnX/rx_monitor, a hard lockup similar to the call trace below may occur.
