    [S390] cio: fix channel path vary · d302e1a5
    Peter Oberparleiter authored
    Channel path vary is currently broken: channel paths which are varied
    offline are still used by Linux. The reason for this is that:
    
     * the path mask indicating which paths of an I/O device can be used
       is reset by each internal I/O request
     * the logic that checks if a path group is already in its designated
       target state incorrectly interprets the result "is correctly set"
       as "is correctly set and available"
    
    Fix this by resetting the path mask only for internal I/O requests
    which affect the path mask and by correcting the pgid check logic.
