the error recovery does quiesce + cancel_admin_taget + unquiesce, all 
following
admin I/O should fail immediately upon submission as the ctrl/queue is 
not live.

failing all admin I/O should not be associated with the next reconnect, 
it happens
way before that, in the error recovery work. Hence it is still not clear 
to me how
you are seeing what you are seeing.

It is possible that 5.15 is missing something.

We should not be spending time debugging an issue that might have
been addressed in upstream. The first thing we should do is to understand
if this reproduces in upstream, if so fix it, if not identify the 
missing patch(es)
in 5.15
