Fine with me.

Keep in mind that the attached patch was applied recently...

[PATCH] libata: Prevent the interrupt handler from completing a command twice

Problem:
During the libata CD-ROM stress test, sometimes the "BUG: timeout
without command" error is seen.

Root cause:
Unexpected interrupt occurs after the ata_qc_complete() is called,
but before the SCSI error handler. The interrupt handler is invoked
before the SCSI error handler, and it clears the command by calling
ata_qc_complete() again. Later when the SCSI error handler is run,
the ata_queued_cmd is already gone, causing the "BUG: timeout without
command" error.

Changes:
- Use the ATA_QCFLAG_ACTIVE flag to prevent the interrupt handler
from completing the command twice, before the scsi_error_handler.
