Local fix
Problem summary
The customer will see a false fatal hardware error against the adapter device.
Problem conclusion
The false fatal error happens because we compare the opcode of the current command "to be" issued with the opcode of the mailbox command response. So, the fix in the adapter driver rectifies this by ensuring that the opcode of the mailbox command actually issued is compared with the opcode from the response to the mailbox command. Also, a change is made to ensure that the register login mailbox command from the Async PLOGI response is issued via the appropriate mailbox command slot.
