/*

 * We can get incoming messages from the host that are not in response to

 * messages that we have sent out. An example of this would be messages

 * received by the guest to notify dynamic addition/removal of LUNs. To

 * deal with potential race conditions where the driver may be in the

 * midst of being unloaded when we might receive an unsolicited message

 * from the host, we have implemented a mechanism to gurantee sequential

 * consistency:

 *

 * 1) Once the device is marked as being destroyed, we will fail all

 *    outgoing messages.

 * 2) We permit incoming messages when the device is being destroyed,

 *    only to properly account for messages already sent out.
