The following sequence of event leads to NVME port disappearing:
- device port shut
- nvme_fc_unregister_remoteport
- device port online
- remote port delete completes
- relogin is scheduled
- "post gidpn" message appears due to rscn generation # mismatch
In short, if a device comes back online sooner than an unregister
completion, a mismatch in rscn generation number occurs, which is not
handled correctly during device relogin. Fix this by starting with a redo
of GNL.
When ql2xextended_error_logging is enabled, the re-plugged device's
discovery stops with the following messages printed:
