In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: qla2xxx: Use raw_smp_processor_id() instead of smp_processor_id()

The following call trace was observed:

localhost kernel: nvme nvme0: NVME-FC{0}: controller connect complete

Use raw_smp_processor_id() instead of smp_processor_id().

Also use queue_work() across the driver instead of queue_work_on() thus

avoiding usage of smp_processor_id() when CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled.
