Under heavy iser target(scst) start/stop stress during login/logout
on iser intitiator side happened trace call provided below.
The function iscsi_iser_slave_alloc iser_conn pointer could be NULL,
due to the fact that function iscsi_iser_conn_stop can be called before
and free iser connection. Let's protect that flow by introducing global mutex.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
