** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
  A user reported a bug in nvme over tcp driver affecting aarch64 architectures.
  In weakly ordered architectures the compiler can reorder the instructions 
reading/setting
  queue->cmd and queue->rcv_state which can lead to dropping IOs and IO hanging.
  
  The bug has been fixed upstream in [1], introduced in 6.14.
  
  [Test Plan]
  The bug is reproducible on arm64 architectures.
- Setup nvme over tcp. 
+ Setup nvme over tcp.
  
  Using an arm based machien as the target run a fio test with the
  following config:
  
  [global]
  ioengine=libaio
  max_latency=45s
  end_fsync=1
  create_serialize=0
  size=3200m
  directory=/path/to/storage
  ramp_time=30
  lat_percentiles=1
  direct=1
  filename_format=fiodata.$jobnum
  verify_dump=1
  numjobs=16
  fallocate=native
  stonewall=1
  group_reporting=1
  file_service_type=random
  iodepth=16
  runtime=5m
  time_based=1
  [random_0_100_4k]
  bs=4k
  rw=randwrite
  
  [Where problems could occur]
- To fix the bug the patch reads/writes queue->cmd with READ/WRITE_ONCE 
+ To fix the bug the patch reads/writes queue->cmd with READ/WRITE_ONCE
  statements and queue->rcv_state with smp_load_acquire and smp_store_release.
  The patch modifies the nvme-tcp driver and therefore any potential regressions
  regard setups using nvme over tpc.

  [Other Info]

  supported), 6.8 and 6.11.
