Hi Hannes,

Try #2.
Is this needed for RDAC(INF-01-00) devices?


Thank you.

    scsi_dh_alua: Add new blacklist flag 'BLIST_SYNC_ALUA'

    Add a new blacklist flag BLIST_SYNC_ALUA to instruct the
    alua device handler to use synchronous command submission
    for ALUA commands.

Actually I have been in contact with NetApp, and they prefer _not_ to
have the RDAC arrays marked for synchronous ALUA. They have validated
things on their current firmware and the synchronous ALUA setting is not
required anymore.

Cheers,
